6. **Toast the Burger Buns:**
- While searing the patty, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a separate pan until they're golden brown.
7. **Assemble the Burgers:**
- Once the patty is seared to your liking, remove it from the heat.
- Place the smoked and seared ribeye patty onto a toasted burger bun and add your desired toppings such as lettuce, tomato, onions, cheese, etc.
