Ingredients
- 1/2 cup (4oz | 125g) unsalted butter
- 6-8 cloves whole garlic cloves, smashed with the blunt end of a knife
- 2 sprigs fresh herbs, thyme or roasemary work well
- Salt, to taste
- 1/2-1 teaspoon fresh cracked black pepper
- 4 Steaks of your choice, (I suggest Ribeye, Strip, Porterhouse, T-Bone, Rump, Sirloin or Eye Fillet for best results)
- 1-2 tablespoons cooking oil (I suggest canola oil)
- Salt and pepper, to season steaks
Instructions
- Remove steaks from refrigerator for at least 15-30 minutes before grilling. Cover with wrap or foil.
- While steaks are out, melt butter in a small pot or skillet over on the grill plates over medium-high heat. Stir the butter continuously and swirl the pan occasionally to allow the butter to cook evenly and prevent too much splattering.
- When butter begins to foam, the colour will change from yellow to tan to a rich golden brown colour. As soon as you smell a nutty aroma, take the pan off the heat.
- Add in smashed garlic cloves, herb sprigs, pepper and salt. Give it a light mix with a wooden spoon to evenly brown the garlic and lift up any browned bits on the base of your pan.
- Cover and set browned butter aside to absorb garlic and herb flavours.
- Heat grill over high heat. Lightly grease grill plates with oil. Pat steaks dry with paper towel. Brush lightly with oil and generously season with salt and pepper.
- Grill steaks for 4-5 minutes each side until browned and cooked to desired doneness. Spoon a little browned butter over the steaks, then transfer steaks to a warm plate and let rest for 5 minutes if time allows.
- Serve with the rest of the browned butter.
Notes
For steaks, you can use Strip, Sirloin, Rib eye, T-bone, Eye fillet, Scotch fillet or Porterhouse steaks.
If you don't want to rest your steaks, prepare browned butter first, then reheat if needed on low heat before serving.
