- Crumble in the blue cheese and gently mix until it’s incorporated
- roll the compound butter into a log and refrigerate for later
- preheat the grill on high for at least 15 minutes ahead of time
- Remove steaks from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking so they come to room temperature. Season them liberally with course salt and pepper on both sides.
- Rub grill grates well with oil. Grill steaks until medium rare, about 3-4 minutes per side (or however you like them done).
- Remove steaks and immediately top each with a slice of Blue Cheese butter. Let it melt for 5 -7 minutes as the steaks rest
