This Steak Butter recipe is inspired by my first-ever job in the food world. I was 16, full of energy, and soooo excited to be working as a hostess at The Chop House in Knoxville, TN (where I grew up). I ended up working there for years and went on to be a waitress and even did a little work in their corporate office. Oh, how I LOVED working there!
And so, when I told my husband I was making this recipe inspired by their steak butter, he said, “Well how do you know it’s the best ever?” and I said, “Because it’s over 20 years later, and I am still thinking about it!” So there you go. Try it out and be the judge yourself. :)

August 24, 2016 at 12:41 pmI can’t help but notice the lack of garlic in your recipe. I’m going to have to disagree with your claim it is the “best-ever” based on that fact. Otherwise, it looks like a fantastic recipe that I will probably try this weekend when we grill.

September 19, 2016 at 11:39 amHi Andrea. For more flavor, flat is the way to go.

August 29, 2016 at 10:56 amWhat brand of lemon pepper seasoning do you recommend? I have come to realized (by reading the labels) that lemon pepper has added sugar as well as other added things. Just trying to find a decent lemon pepper seasoning.

September 6, 2016 at 11:15 amHi there. I use Simply Organic but it does have a little sugar. You can find ones without sugar, however.

February 22, 2017 at 12:44 pmHi. You can just soften the butter and very finely cut the parsley.
