Looking for a steak experience that’s beyond luxurious? These Truffle Butter King Cut Filets are exactly that. Thick-cut filet mignon steaks get seared over high heat, creating a crispy crust, and then finished with a rich, aromatic truffle butter.

Ingredients

• 2 King Cut Filet Mignon Steaks
• White Truffle Oil
• Stubbs Steak Seasoning
• Coarse Black Pepper
• 2 tbsp Unsalted Butter
• 1 tsp Black Truffle Salt
• 1 tsp Fresh Basil (chopped)
• 1 tsp Balsamic White Truffle Glace (Colavita)

Instructions

1. Order the Steaks – Request King Cut Filet Mignon from your local butcher, as this cut is usually a special order.
2. Prepare the Steaks – Dry the surfaces of the filets with a paper towel. Apply an even coat of truffle oil on all surfaces.
3. Season – Generously season with Stubbs Steak Seasoning and add extra coarse black pepper.
4. Bring to Room Temp – Let the steaks sit out at room temperature, covered with plastic wrap, to ensure even cooking.
5. Make Truffle Butter – Soften the butter in the microwave for 15 seconds. Mix in black truffle salt, balsamic truffle glace, and a sprinkle of black pepper. Blend well, then refrigerate the compound butter to harden.
6. Preheat the Grill – Preheat your grill for direct cooking at 550°F (287°C).
7. Grill the Filets – Place the steaks on the grill, pressing down gently for contact. Cook for 4 minutes, turn 45°, and cook for another 4 minutes. Flip and repeat. Sear the sides by cooking each side for 60 seconds.
8. Finish with Truffle Butter – Turn off the grill. Place a teaspoon of compound butter on each filet. Let the steaks rest for 10 minutes with the lid open as the butter melts.

Notes

Patience is Key – The last 10 minutes of resting will feel like forever, but don’t cut into the steak too early! Letting it rest for the full 10 minutes ensures the juices redistribute, giving you a juicy and tender filet, even if the butter melts faster than expected.
