How do you make Steak Butter?
How do you make Steak Butter?It really does not get much easier than this. In a bowl, using a fork, mash together the softened butter, garlic, minced parsley, salt, pepper, and lemon zest. Now simply apply a rounded tablespoon to the top of a hot grilled steak right before serving.
Helpful hints for grilling steaks!!
- 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 the grill and cover loosely with aluminum foil and allow to rest for ten minutes. Apply steak butter and serve.

If one is making their own butter from heavy cream, could this be done with the Kitchenaid after the butter is ready? My hubby loves making steaks so he will love this surprise when I make butter.
Beth Pierce
Yes, you sure can.
