Simple and to the point, there’s nothing liked grilled steak. Last night’s fare – beautiful, Ribeye steaks with a little something extra….Blue Cheese Butter.

The only other things that were needed – a green salad and crunchy garlic bread. In many cookbook, food magazines or restaurants, you may see the term, “compound butter,” but don’t be scared! This term simply means – butter with other ingredients, chilled and then added to meats or other dishes at the end of the cooking process to enhance flavor. Let’s be honest about this…when you add a compound butter to something, FLAVOR rules! So, get creative, make your own, you’ll love the outcome!
Blue Cheese Butter will add something special to your next steak.
Ingredients
- 1 stick of unsalted butter at room temperature
- 3 oz (about ¼ cup) of blue cheese
- ½ clove garlic - finely minced
- ½ teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a bowl and blend with a fork.
- On a sheet of parchment or wax paper, place butter mixture and shape into a log.
- Using the paper, roll the butter into a tight log and twist the ends to secure.
- Refrigerate for 20 minutes or in freezer for 10 minutes.
- Cut into ½" rounds and place on steaks, chops, potatoes or any other dish.
Notes
Butter can be stored for up to 2 weeks.
