Stages of cooking
-
Mash butter, blue cheese, and thyme together in a small bowl until well combined. Season with salt and pepper. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
-
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
-
Brush steaks with oil and season with salt and pepper.
-
Cook steaks on the preheated grill until firm and reddish-pink and juicy in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).
-
Transfer steaks to a platter and top with some of the butter mixture. Let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
