Cowboy butter is a versatile savoury butter compound used as a dip or topping for steak or roast, but it would be equally good with chicken or even prawns. It’s a little bit of everything: salty, tangy, smokey, full of fresh herbs and has a bit of a kick with a pinch of cayenne. I have been playing around with different versions, and this one is our favourite!

Instructions
-
In a small bowl, combine all ingredients until well combined. Store the butter in an airtight container in the fridge, or use parchment paper to shape the butter into a log and wrap it with cling wrap.
-
To serve your Cowboy Butter, slice it cold or at room temperature and use it on top of your meat. It melts deliciously on a warm steak! Or, you can do as we like and melt it, then use it as a dipping sauce!
