INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/2 lb strip loin @1855blackangusbeef
• 1 tsp. teaspoon salt
• 1 tsp. black pepper
• 1 tsp. garlic powder
• 4 slices bacon, cooked and chopped
• 1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
• 1 tbsp. @grillheads Oh My Garlic

DIRECTIONS

1. Cut the strip loin into 1.5” thick steaks and season them on all sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

2. Setup your grill for indirect cooking and preheat to medium-high heat. Place the steaks on the grill and cook until they reach an internal temperature of 115 degrees Fahrenheit, using a meat thermometer to check.

3. While the steaks are cooking, cook the bacon until crispy, chop it into small pieces, and set it aside.

4. In a small bowl, combine the softened butter, chopped bacon, and @grillheads Oh My Garlic. Mix well until fully combined.

5. Place the butter mixture onto a piece of saran wrap and shape it into a log. Place it in the fridge until it hardens.

6. Once the steaks have reached 115 degrees Fahrenheit, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.

7. Heat a skillet or grill pan to high heat. Sear each steak for one minute on each side or until they reach your desired doneness.

8. Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 10 minutes. Slice the compound butter and place it on top of the steak while it rests.

9. Serve hot and enjoy your delicious NY Strip with Bacon Compound Butter!

Notes
