How to make it

  • To make the butter, blend the butter, blue cheese, garlic, and pepper together in a medium bowl. (A fork is a good tool for doing this. If you wish, you could use a hand mixer.) Pack the butter in a small container and refrigerate until needed. The butter can be made several days in advance and even frozen.
  • Allow the steaks to stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling. Brush olive oil over both sides of the steaks and season generously with salt and pepper.
  • Oil the grill racks. Preheat your grill using all burners set on high and with the lid closed for 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Place the steaks on the grill, close the lid, and cook for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Add a minute or two to each side for medium; subtract a minute or two from each side for rare. Remove from the grill and let rest for at least 5 minutes. Smear at least a tablespoon of the butter over each steak and serve.

    Oh my, this makes my mouth water! Love compound butters--and this one will compliment those NY strips so well. Thanks for a beautiful post, Val! :-)

    Thanks for the compound butter deal. I make a bit of this and that kind of butter as needed but just plane forgot that a batch of several kinds of this can be made up and will get used more often. You're right, it adds another dimension to cooking. Thanks. RJ
