Grilled Pepper Crusted T-Bone Steaks with Worcestershire-Chive Butter



Worcestershire-Chive Butter:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped shallots
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
2 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons dry mustard
3 tablespoons finely chopped chives
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Steaks:
2 cups coarsely ground black peppercorns
3 tablespoons ancho chile powder
8 T-bone steaks, each 10 to 12 ounces
Olive oil
Salt

1. Preheat grill or side burner. Heat oil in a medium skillet add shallots and garlic and cook until soft, let cool slightly. Place butter in a small bowl and add shallot mixture, Worcestershire, mustard and chives and mix until combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Scrape mixture into the center of a piece of waxed paper and roll into a log. Refrigerate until firm.
2. Preheat grill. Mix the peppercorns and ancho chile powder in a medium baking dish. Brush steaks with olive oil and season with salt. Dredge one side of the steaks in the pepper mixture and grill, pepper side down, until golden brown, about 5 to 6 minutes, turn over and continue grilling 6 to 7 minutes for medium-rare doneness. Remove from the grill and top with a slice of the butter.
