My Special Bleu Cheese Butter Food

GRILLED FILET WITH BLUE CHEESE BUTTER

Steps:

• Preheat a grill to high heat.
• Combine the butter, cheese, and thyme in a bowl and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Brush the steaks with some canola oil, then season them with salt and cracked black pepper. Grill until the meat chars on both sides and is cooked to a medium-rare doneness. Transfer the steaks to a platter, top them with some of the butter and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.

MY SPECIAL BLEU CHEESE BUTTER

Steps:

• 1. Mix all with mixer, or by hand if necessary.
• 2. Form into logs on plastic wrap. Wrap tightly & refrigerate for 2 hours or more before serving.
• 3. This is good on top of steaks or as an appetizer on crackers or on fresh hot rolls.
• 4. Note: I keep one log out in fridge & vacuum pack & freeze the others for future use.

BLUE CHEESE BUTTER FOR STEAKS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Serve on top of the steaks.
• Refrigerate leftover in an airtight container in the fridge.

BLUE CHEESE AND CHIVE BUTTER

Steps:

• Put the softened butter in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Whip the butter until it's fluffy. Add the blue cheese, chopped chives, red pepper flakes and ground pepper. Mix until totally combined, scraping the sides as needed.
• Lay out a long piece of plastic wrap on top of a piece of aluminum foil and scoop the butter mixture in a long strip down the middle of it. Carefully pull one side of the plastic wrap and foil over the butter, squeezing it gently to form it into a log. Continue to roll the log of butter into a roll. When it's all rolled up, twist the ends (like a piece of candy) until they become very taut (this means the butter is pressing together inside the plastic and foil to form a cohesive roll). Place the roll of butter into the fridge so it will harden, at least 1 hour, or into the freezer if you need to speed along the process.
