Ribeye chops are cuts of meat taken from the rib section of a cow. They are known for their rich flavor and tenderness, thanks to the marbling of fat throughout the meat. This marbling not only enhances the taste but also helps keep the meat juicy during cooking. Typically, ribeye chops are thicker than other cuts, making them ideal for grilling or pan-searing. They can be cooked to various levels of doneness, from rare to well-done, and are often seasoned simply with salt and pepper to highlight their natural flavors.
