T-Bone Steaks with Savory Compound Butter
End grilling season with a bang with this delicious recipe for T-Bone Steaks with Savory Compound Butter. This is a great guest-worthy recipe for a Labor Day cookout, so invite your neighbors and bask in the glory that this recipe will bring you!
Compound butter is butter that is enhanced with other ingredients like herbs, garlic, or even sweet ingredients like in my Gluten-Free Cranberry Orange Honey Butter recipe. In this savory compound butter, I use shallot, garlic, chives, and Worcestershire sauce. It goes great with steak, of course, but also with grilled vegetables.
This recipe is basically a 2-for-1: compound butter plus a marinade for the t-bone steaks. The marinade used in this recipe is the best marinade for any kind of steak, not just t-bones! For the marinade I used Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, San-J Organic Tamari, lemon juice, Italian seasoning, pepper, onion powder, and salt. The result is savory, tangy, salty, and absolutely delicious!
