Pepper- Grilled Tuna Steak With Parsley- Garlic Butter image

Big pepper flavor! I love freshly cracked black pepper so this is perfect for me. I have to back off the pepper a bit for my son's steak, though---just too much pepper for him. So adjust to suit your own taste. -adapted from License to Grill
