Grilled Asparagus With Gorgonzola Butter image

The Gorgonzola butter is heavenly, and I think I might just use any leftovers to butter a nice loaf of bread. I found this recipe on epicurious.com, and it originally came from Bon Appetit September 2000 by Allen Susser, Chef Allen's, Miami, FL. YUMMY! Serviing size is estimated because it was not listed.

I'm a big fan of grilled asparagus, and this recipe is one of my favorites. The gorgonzola butter is a great way to add a bit of extra flavor and richness. I also like to sprinkle some chopped walnuts on top before serving.

I followed the recipe exactly and the asparagus turned out a little overcooked for my taste. I would recommend grilling the asparagus for a shorter amount of time, depending on the thickness of the spears.
