BBQ Compound Butter (Ruth's Chris Steak House Style)
BBQ compound butter has no barbecue sauce in it. Instead, it is fresh butter that is infused with garlic, cayenne pepper, paprika, a splash of Tabasco sauce for it's mild spice and Worcestershire sauce
Ingredients
- 16 Tbsp Salted Butter Softened
- 1/2 tsp Paprika
- 1/2 tsp Cayenne Pepper
- 1 tsp Tabasco Sauce
- 4 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 Tsp Pressed Garlic (1-2cloves)
Instructions
-
Into a bowl add 16Tbsp of softened salted butter, 1/2tsp of paprika, 1/2tsp cayenne pepper, 1tsp of Tabasco sauce and 1-2 cloves of pressed garlic (or 1tsp)
-
Using a fork or a hand mixer, mix everything together to combine.
-
You can make this butter and use right away if you need it OR store it in the fridge or freezer for later use.
What i have found convenient is to lay out the butter on a cutting board or baking sheet using a cookie scoop that measures 1Tbsp. Place the scoops in the freezer until completely frozen and then transfer the butter into a container and store in the freezer. This makes it easy to know the amount of tablespoons you need for a recipe
Recipe Notes
Don't have salted butter?
No problem! Use unsalted butter and just add a pinch of salt.
