Ingredients:

• For the bacon-butter:
• 4 Tbsp butter, softened
• 2 tsp blue cheese
• 1/2 tsp cracked pepper
• 2 Tbsp cooked bacon, crumbled
• 2 tsp chives, minced
• For the steaks:
• 2 14 oz New York beef steaks
• 1 1/2 Tbsp sea salt
• 2 Tbsp cracked black pepper
• 3 Tbsp parsley, chopped
• 2 shallots, diced
• 2 Tbsp thyme, chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1/3 cup vodka
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 2 Tbsp granulated onion
• 1/2 cup beef stock

Method

Mix the first five ingredients together well. Wrap in plastic wrap and twist to make a log. Refrigerate. Combine the next 10 ingredients in a large ziplock back. Refrigerate at least 3 hours, but preferably for 2 days. The day you are ready to serve, remove butter from the refrigerator. Heat a gas grill to HIGH heat and oil generously. Remove steaks from the marinade, reserving marinade. Rub steaks with some more olive oil. Grill for 10-13 minutes, turning often. While steaks cook, combine marinade and beef stock in a saute pan. Place on the grill and cook for 7-8 minutes, or until mixture is thick and bubbly and can coat the back of a spoon. Let steaks rest for 5 minutes, then slice very thin and serve on a large platter, bistro style. Pour sauce over steaks and place 3 slices of the bacon-chive butter over steaks.

Notes: This dish goes great with crusty French bread and a nice garden salad. This is a very quick and simple feast that tastes absolutely fantastic. If you do not have time to marinate the steaks for 2 days, marinate at least 3 hours.
