    Once the Traeger has preheated put the steaks on the hot grill grates to achieve a good sear.

    Flip the steaks once and allow them to cook for about 6 to 8 minutes per side, or until done to your liking (135 degrees F for medium-rare).

  • 6

    Make the chimichurri by blending together chimichurri ingredients. Season it to your liking, adding more salt or red pepper flakes to taste.

  • 7

    Transfer the steaks to a platter. Let the meat rest for 3 minutes before serving. Top the rib-eyes with some chimichurri. Enjoy!
