i don't grill as much as i used to, or eat steak for that matter, but i cook a f#cking top flight ribeye on a stovetop, and finish it in the oven.
one of the biggest influences on the quality of your steak is the cut of meat itself. you gotta get picky in the store and get the best looking steak of the grade you'd like.

i eat ribeyes. rarely i'd pick up a T bone, new york strip. porterhouse is just too big for one dude to be eating alone.
seasoning is salt / pepper.
maybe i can find and bump my cooking / prep methods in more detail.
let the steak get to room temp. i leave mine on a clean plate on the counter for at least an hour.
salt and pepper either side about 10-20 mins prior to cooking.
rub some olive oil into the steak immediately prior to cooking.
preheat the oven to 425.
heat a cast iron skillet to high heat. this will take a while, so be patient. the pan will start to smoke before it is ready for your steak. your house / apt is going to get smoked up like crazy, so turn off your detectors or get a hell of a fan going. if your place can't handle all of the smoke, use peanut oil. it can get much hotter without smoking. the flavor won't be quite as robust, but it's still going to make a hell of a steak if you time it right.
cook until browned on either side on high heat on the stovetop. it should be around 2.5-3 mins, but not all ovens, pans, and steaks are the same.
then she goes into the oven, skillet and all. i used a meat thermometer by the end of my steak eating prime, but you really don't need one if you cook enough steaks.
the time in the oven will vary greatly depending on the thickness fo the steak, and how well you want to cook it. expect 5+ mins for a huge steak, and markedly less for a small one. a tiny steak can be finished on the stovetop.
cooking a nice cut of steak longer than medium rare is blasphemy, for the record.
