Where it comes from
Ribeye: Highly marbled steak cut from the rib primal; bone-in or boneless retail cuts vary by market. (rib, upper rib / rib eye muscle). Striploin: Leaner than ribeye; the classic strip steak muscle running along the short loin. (loin, longissimus dorsi (short loin)). Tenderloin: Most tender muscle of the loin; center cuts often sold as filet mignon. (loin, psoas major).
In menus and butcher shops it is often discussed next to Striploin, Tenderloin, Sirloin Cap, Short Ribs, Prime Rib, Chuck Roll, Chuck Eye Steak, and Denver Steak.

Cooking methods
Typical methods include high-heat searing or grilling for steaks, resting before slicing, and cutting across the grain when the muscle is fibrous. Because this cut sits on the rib primal (upper rib / rib eye muscle), adjust time and temperature to thickness and marbling.
