Fire up your grills and tantalize your taste buds with our delectable grilled steaks, expertly paired with a trio of mouthwatering compound butters: anchovy-lemon, garlic-herb, and classic maitre d'hotel. These flavor-packed butters elevate the succulent steaks to new heights of culinary delight.
In the anchovy-lemon butter, the briny essence of anchovies harmonizes perfectly with the bright acidity of lemon, creating a zesty and savory topping that complements the beef's richness. The garlic-herb butter bursts with aromatic flavors, combining minced garlic, fresh herbs like parsley and thyme, and a touch of lemon zest for a herbaceous and garlicky delight.
And for those who prefer a more traditional approach, the maitre d'hotel butter is a timeless classic, featuring a blend of parsley, shallots, lemon juice, and a hint of cayenne pepper, offering a superbly elegant touch to the grilled steaks.

Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- In a large bowl, using your hands or a potato masher, soften the butter. Alternatively, cream the butter using the paddle attachment of a stand mixer. The overall goal is just to get the butter soft so you can incorporate the anchovies.
- Add the mashed anchovies into the butter and continue mixing until all is fully incorporated.
- Spread out a 1-foot or bigger square of plastic wrap across your work surface, then scoop the mixed butter onto the plastic. Roll the butter into a cylinder inside the plastic wrap.
- Tie the excess plastic wrap at the ends of the cylinder into a knot, or just use little pieces of string to tie off the ends.
- Chill until needed. If you're not using it all at the same time, freeze part of it in smaller portions and thaw the amount you'd need when ready to use.
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat broiler. Using fork, mash first 5 ingredients in bowl until blended. Chill. Sprinkle steaks with salt and pepper. Grill or broil to desired doneness, about 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Transfer to plates. Top with anchovy butter.
Tips:
- Choose high-quality steaks: Look for steaks that are well-marbled and at least 1 inch thick. This will ensure that they stay juicy and flavorful during grilling.
- Season the steaks generously: Before grilling, season the steaks with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices. This will help to enhance their flavor.
- Cook the steaks over high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the steaks while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
- Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the steaks are cooked to your desired doneness, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare steaks, cook to an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C).
- Let the steaks rest before serving: Once the steaks are cooked, let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steaks, making them more tender and flavorful.
