Season the steaks on all sides with the butcher blend seasoned salt.
- 3
Preheat the grill to 400°F.
- 4
Place the steaks on the grill and cook for about 3 minutes.
- 5
Rotate each steak about 90 degrees on the same side to create crosshatch marks and cook about 3 minutes more.
- 6
Flip the steaks and cook about 3 minutes, then rotate them again for crosshatch marks and cook about 3 minutes more.
- 7
Check the internal temperature with a meat thermometer. If the steaks need more time, move them off direct heat to the upper rack until they reach about 138°F for medium.
- 8
Remove the steaks from the grill, top each with butter, and let them rest. The temperature will rise to about 140-142°F as they rest.

Slice and serve, with baked potatoes if you like.
Creator's notes
Aim for 138°F before you pull the steaks off the grill. Carryover heat during the rest brings them up 2-3 degrees to 140-142°F, a good medium. Leftover steak keeps for the next day.
