Total Time: 30 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients

• Servings: 4
• 4 ounces unsalted butter, at room temperature
• 1 tablespoon red wine
• 2 -3 ounces roquefort cheese or 2 -3 ounces maytag blue cheese
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• salt and black pepper
• 4 aged new york strip steaks

Recipe

• 1 while heating up the grill, mix the butter, wine and cheese, lemon juice salt and pepper in a glass or stainless bowl until well incorporated.
• 2 with a spatula, scrape out mixture onto a sheet of wax paper. mold the butter into a rough rectangle about 6 inches long; then using the wax paper, roll the mixture into a log, twisting the ends to seal. place in the freezer.
• 3 grille the steaks the way you like them. put the steaks onto plates; remove the roquefort butter from the freezer -- it should be well-chilled -- and slice into 1/2 inch thick medallions and place one or two on each steak. let the steaks rest a few minutes and the butter melt a bit before serving.
• 4 note: you'll probably have some roquefort butter left over; so try some over the next week on brocolli, in pasta or on a hamburger.
