By: PLONGSTOCKING

"This was originally for T-bone steaks but it works just as nicely with deer. The rub helps minimize the 'gamey' taste and the butter just makes them delicious."

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, softened
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons steak seasoning
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
4 (1/2 pound) venison steaks

Directions

Whip together the butter, lime juice, and cilantro in a small bowl until well combined. Transfer the butter mixture onto a large piece of plastic wrap, gently wrap and form the butter into a log. Freeze until ready to use.
Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
