Perfect Steak Butter
Easy and delicious steak butter (also known as compound butter) takes just minutes to prepare and takes hamburger steak, t-bones, strips, rib-eyes, porterhouse, and filet mignon to an all-new high.
- Prep Time: 5 minutes
- Total Time: 5 minutes
- Yield: 4 servings
- Category: Sauce or Topping
- Method: Bowl and Spoon
- Cuisine: American
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons butter softened
- 2 cloves garlic crushed
- 2 tablespoons fresh Italian parsley minced
- 1/4 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
- In a bowl, using a fork, mash together softened butter, garlic, minced parsley, salt, pepper, and lemon zest.
- Apply a rounded tablespoon to the top of the hot grilled steak right before serving.
Notes
- Take the steaks out of the fridge for 30 minutes before grilling.
- Scrape the grill grate and brush lightly with cooking oil before heating.
- Get half of the grill good and hot and sear the steaks. Don’t flip them until they are golden brown and slightly crispy on the edges. Sear both sides. Then move the steaks off to the side (over indirect heat) until the desired doneness.
- Use tongs to turn them. You don’t want to pierce them with a fork and have all those wonderful juices wasted in the bottom of the grill.
- Remove from grill and cover loosely with aluminum foil and allow to rest for ten minutes. Apply steak butter and serve.
