How to Make Whiskey Butter

  1. Finely chop 1/4 cup yellow onion, 2 cloves garlic, and 1-2 small chili peppers (adjust to your spice preference).
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped onion, garlic, and chili peppers. Add 1/2 cup whiskey, 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 tablespoon white wine vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the liquid has reduced by half. Remove from heat.
  4. Gradually whisk in 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, 2 tablespoons at a time, ensuring each addition is fully incorporated before adding more. The mixture will thicken as it cools.
  5. Let the Whiskey Butter cool to room temperature. Serve generously atop grilled steak.
  6. Do not reheat! The butter will separate if reheated.
