Grilled T Bones With Chipotle Chili Rub And Cilantro Lime Compound Butter Recipes

GRILLED T-BONES WITH CHIPOTLE-LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the butter, chipotle, lime zest and juice, and 1 teaspoon salt. Mash with a spoon until smooth. Mound the mixture onto a square of plastic wrap, form into a log shape about 6 inches long, and roll up in the plastic; twist the ends of the plastic tightly to seal. Refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
• Prepare a grill for high-heat cooking. Rub some oil onto the steaks and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Brush the grill grate with oil. Grill the steaks, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally in the meat but not touching the bone registers 130 degrees F for medium-rare, about 8 minutes per side. Transfer the steaks to a cutting board and allow to rest 10 minutes. Slice the steaks and divide among plates; top each serving with a slice of the chipotle butter.

CHIPOTLE-LIME BUTTER

Steps:

• Mix the butter, lime zest, mint, chile powder, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl with a rubber spatula until well blended. Serve at room temperature or transfer the butter to a piece of plastic wrap, wax paper or parchment and roll it up, twisting the ends to make a tight log. Keep in the refrigerator for up to a week or in the freezer for 2 months.

GRILLED T-BONE STEAKS WITH CHIPOTLE AND CILANTRO BUTTER

Steps:

• Mix the butter, chilies, cilantro and tequila in a bowl to blend.
• Lay a sheet of plastic wrap on a work surface. Spoon the chili butter over the center of the plastic wrap. Roll the chili butter into a cylinder. Refrigerate at least 2 to 3 hours or overnight.
• Cut the chili butter log crosswise into 8 slices.
• Sprinkle the steaks with salt and black pepper.
• Prepare a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. (I used a cast iron skillet with one tablespoon of olive oil and one tablespoon of butter.).
• Grill the steaks for five minutes. Turn the steaks over and top each with 2 of the chili butter slices. Continue grilling for 5 minutes for medium-rare doneness, or until the butter begins to melt.
• Transfer the steaks to plates and serve.

GRILLED T-BONE STEAKS WITH BBQ RUB

Steps:

• 1)Combine BBQ Rub ingredients; press evenly onto beef steaks. 2)Place steaks on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 11 to 16 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 15 to 19 minutes) for medium rare (145degreesF) to medium (160degreesF) doneness, turning occasionally. Remove bones and carve steaks into slices, if desired. Season with salt, as desired. To broil, place steaks on rack in broiler pan so surface of beef is 3 to 4 inches from heat. Broil 15 to 20 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning once.
