Notes

For an extra layer of richness, baste the steaks with melted butter during the last few minutes of grilling. If you have leftovers, wrap the steak tightly in aluminum foil or place it in an airtight container to keep in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in the oven to avoid drying out. Garlic herb butter can be frozen for future use; slice it into portions before freezing for easy access. Consider brining the steaks beforehand for enhanced juiciness, and don’t skip the resting step to maintain tenderness. Aim for 130°F for perfect medium-rare doneness.
