BLUE CHEESE BUTTER FOR STEAKS
Throw away the A-1! This is delicious on steaks, grilled burgers, veggies and baked potatoes. It lasts a while in the fridge so if you have extra don't toss it. A hand potato masher is a quick and easy way to combine the ingredients.

GRILLED BONE-IN RIB-EYE STEAKS WITH BLUE CHEESE
The usual formula for cooking an amazing slab of steak is as simple as they come: salt plus pepper plus a short stint over a hot fire. But there are times when you want an extra shot of flavor. Some good crumbled blue cheese sprinkled on the hot steak so it melts over the top does just that, especially when you spike it with hot sauce and butter. I like to use a combination of direct and indirect heat when grilling a bone-in piece of meat; it allows a crust to form but not burn while keeping the meat juicy inside. But you know your grill best, so let your instinct guide you as to where to move the steaks and when you think they are done. And if blue cheese isn't your thing, follow the grilling directions here but leave your meat bare except for the salt and pepper. If you start with good meat, you will never go wrong.

Steps:
- Season steaks with salt and pepper at least 30 minutes and up to 1 hour before you plan to cook them. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature.
- Heat grill to high. If using a charcoal grill, mound coals to one side, allowing for an area of indirect heat. If using a gas grill, turn on only a few of the burners and leave the rest off for indirect heat.
- Lightly oil steaks. Place on the hottest part of the grill. Cook, covered, until they develop a golden-brown crust, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Move steaks to indirect heat and crumble cheese over the top; cover and continue cooking 2 to 5 minutes longer, depending on desired doneness. (Pull the meat at 125 degrees for rare.)
- Transfer steaks to a cutting board to rest, loosely covered with foil, for 10 minutes. While steaks rest, stir together butter, chives and hot sauce. Pour over steak before serving.

Tips:
- Choose the right steak: Flat iron steak is a flavorful and affordable cut that is perfect for grilling. It is also relatively lean, so it is a good choice for those watching their weight.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak helps to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, and herbs, or you can get more creative with your ingredients.
- Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to sear the outside of the steak and keep it juicy on the inside. Cook the steak for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
- Let the steak rest before serving: This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
- Serve the steak with your favorite sides: Grilled grapes, blue cheese butter, and roasted vegetables are all great options.
Conclusion:
Grilled flat iron steak is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. By following these tips, you can cook a steak that is juicy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. So next time you are looking for a great steak recipe, give grilled flat iron steak a try.
