Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, at room temperature, plus 2 tablespoons
6 ounces blue cheese
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
4 New York strip steaks, 14 to 16 ounces each
1 tablespoon vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Combine the 1 cup butter, blue cheese, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a food processor. Process until well blended and smooth. Transfer to a sheet of plastic wrap and roll into a cylinder. Wrap tightly and place in the freezer to chill.
  • Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them come to room temp for 30 to 45 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle the steaks with salt. Heat a cast-iron grill pan over high heat until starting to smoke, then add a small amount of oil to the pan. Place the steaks in the pan and cook for 4 minutes. Flip and cook for another 4 minutes. Turn off the oven and transfer the pan to the oven for 8 minutes, or until the steaks reach an internal temperature of 155 degrees F.
  • Place 1/2 tablespoon of the remaining butter on each steak and allow the steaks to rest for 5 minutes before serving; the internal temperature will climb another 5 degrees.
  • Serve the steaks topped with blue cheese compound butter.
