T Bones With Garlic Thyme Butter Recipes

T-BONES WITH GARLIC-THYME BUTTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl stir together butter, rosemary, garlic, Worcestershire sauce and pepper sauce.
• Shape into a 2 inch long roll. Wrap in a plastic wrap. Refrigerate until needed.
• Lightly sprinkle steaks with salt and black pepper to taste.
• Coat grill rack with nonstick cooking spray. Preheat grill to medium-direct heat.
• Grill steaks uncovered to desired doneness, turning once halfway through grill. (Allow 11-14 minute for medium rare or 13-16 minutes for medium).
• Cut steaks into serving pieces. Top each piece with some of the butter.

PAN SEARED T-BONE STEAK

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 'oven finish' your T-bone if you have a thick-cut steak (1 1/2 inches in thickness or more). Heat the oven to 400°F (205°C) and make sure to use an oven-safe skillet.
• Heat your medium to large cast iron skillet or heavy-bottomed frying pan with the olive oil over medium-high heat. As soon as it starts to smoke, it is ready to have the steaks added.
• While your skillet is heating, season both sides of your steak generously using the homemade steak seasoning (1/2 to 1 Tbsp portion of seasoning). Pat the seasoning into place, and do not rub it into the steak as the seasoning can accumulate rather than being spread evenly. *Don't forget to season any fatty strips and the sides of your T-bone steak!
• Place your seasoned T-bone steak, garlic, and herbs in the hot skillet and allow the steak to cook, without moving it, for 4 minutes or until browned and caramelization has begun.
• Turn your steak over and cook on the second side for 4 minutes, then add your tablespoon pat of butter. Allow the butter to melt, then tip your pan toward you and spoon (or 'arroser') the butter over the steaks to add moisture and flavor back into your cooked steak.
• The steaks are done when both sides are browned and have an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C). Thick-cut T-Bone Steak: Alternatively, place your seared T-bone into the oven to finish. Cook in the oven until the steak reaches 125°F (52°C) for medium-rare or 130°F (54°C) degrees for medium.
• I usually use tongs to sear the ribbon of fat on the steak edges before removing from the heat. Transfer your steaks to a plate or platter, then drizzle the pan juices along with the herbs and garlic to set on your steaks while they rest.
• Use a square of aluminum foil to loosely 'tent' over your steaks while resting, then allow the steaks to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

ROASTED GARLIC THYME BUTTER

Steps:

• Put the garlic cloves in a saucepan with just enough olive oil to cover them. Place over low heat and simmer until the cloves are soft and golden, 30-40 minutes. With a slotted spoon, scoop the garlic into a bowl, then mash to a puree. Immediately strain the oil through a coffee filter and reserve.
• Process the butter in a food processor until smooth and creamy. Add 1/4-cup of the garlic puree (save any extra for spreading on bread), 1-1/2 Tbs. of the reserved garlic oil, the thyme, and a pinch of salt. Process until well blended. Taste and add more salt if needed. Refrigerate until firm enough to shape into a log.
• Put an 18-inch sheet of aluminum foil on your work surface. Spoon the butter down the center of the foil into a log about 1-1/2 inches in diameter. Enclose in foil and twist the ends to make a sealed log, like a Tootsie Roll. Refrigerate for up to 1 week, or freeze for up to 6 months.
