Prepare the herb butter by mixing together softened unsalted or salted butter, minced garlic and fresh herbs.This could be done in a bowl with a fork or in a food processor for a finer textured butter.
Scrape the herb butter onto a sheet of parchment or waxed paper, roll it up and twist the ends. Refrigerate till firm.
Take the steak out of the fridge at least one hour before cooking, so it would come to room temperature. Season with coarse salt and pepper. Preheat the grill to 200C/400F.
Dab the moisture off the surface of the steak with paper towel before placing it on the grill. Grill the steak on direct heat, covered for 4-5 minutes on each side until the steak develops a nice crust. Make sure you get the sides as well as it’s a very thick steak. You can do a 45 degree turn after a couple of minutes to get nice grill marks. Then move it to indirect heat and cook for approximately 10 minutes until the internal temperature registers 57C/135F for medium and 54/130F for medium rare. Take it off the grill, cover with foil and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with herb butter.
