True, though it does, as you know, make mighty fine stew.

Any tips on how to sear a steak inside without my wife killing me?

How are you doing it presently, that your wife wants to kill you?

Damn that looks good. I never cooked a ribeye. I always use New York Strip and make crinkle fries in the oven :)

Preheat your oven to as high as it will go, 500+ degrees.
Take a cast iron skillet, heat it on the stove till VERY hot. Take the steak, coat with some olive oil and season with salt & pepper. Place in skillet for 30 - 45 seconds, then turn. Let sit for another minute or so, then place in
oven for about 3 - 4 minutes, depending on how done you want the steak. Anything over 4 minutes, and it will be medium to well done. Remove from oven, let sit for 5 minutes, and enjoy.

I’ve always read/heard to get the cast iron ripping hot. They come out great, but the entire house gets smoked out and smells. I have a sous vide so its cooked, it just needs a quick sear to finish it off. I’ve written off using butter and herbs and garlic to baste the steak as that just makes it worse.

If you somehow manage to sear the inside of a steak, please let me know.

Argh.
But it’s pretty much un-avoidable unless you close the kitchen doors to the rest of the house while leaving an outside door and window open.
You could sear it on a high heat, then once it’s done, turn down the heat.
Nature of the beast really.
Have you tried adding the butter just before taking the steak out the pan. I turn the heat right down, add a knob of butter to a corner of the pan, then lifting the pan up at an angle I spoon the melted butter over the steak. Then take the steak out the pan and allow to rest.

Very similar area of the cow with the ribeye being to the rear of the shoulders and the New York strip being more to the centre of the back.

Doesn’t help with trying to be indoors but I have a side burner for my gas grill and use that so I’m not smoking/stinking up the house. Not ideal if you’re in a cold area with crappy weather but it usually doesn’t take long at least.
