Butter is delicious. It can really enhance the flavor of whatever you're cooking. But, have you ever tried to enhance the flavor of butter? If you haven't, you need to. It's so, so good.


There are a bunch of ways to enhance butter, like making a compound butter. But, this recipe kicks it up a notch and actually makes smoked butter on the grill.


This recipe uses a propane grill that does not have a smoker attachment. So don't feel like you can't make it without a smoker attachment for the grill or without a smoker. You absolutely can and that's exactly what this recipe does.

Since we're not using a smoker, you're gonna want a pellet smoker tube. This goes straight into a propane grill.


Fill it with hard wood pellets.

Chop butter and put it in a pan. Add onion powder, salt, butter, and grated garlic in that same pan.

Put the pan on the grill and stir quite often until the butter is melted.


Let it begin to coagulate, then remove the pan from the grill.

Put the butter in parchment paper. Roll it into a log. Put it in the fridge to cool. When it's done cooling, you can use it.

Ingredients

  • 1 stick unsalted butter
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions

Fill a pellet smoker tube with hardwood pellets. Lift the grill’s grates and put the pellet smoker tube under the grates. Put the grates back in place.
Pre-heat the grill to about 350 F.
Cut the butter into eight pieces and put them in a grill-safe pan.
Grate four cloves of garlic and add them to the pan.
Sprinkle the salt on top.
Add the garlic powder.
Put the pan on the grill and close the grill. Cook it about 15 minutes, stirring the butter and checking on it every three minutes.
When the garlic is browned and cooked through, and the butter is completely bubbly, remove it from the heat.
Let it sit and cool for about two hours until the butter is coagulated, but not completely hardened. Scoop the butter into a piece of parchment paper. Roll it into a log and let it sit in the fridge overnight.
Tips
  • The grill’s temperature will fluctuate, but you want to try to keep it around 350 F.
