- 4 ounces Stilton cheese, crumbled
- 8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
- 1/2 cup good mayonnaise
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon chopped scallions, white and green parts
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- Thirty minutes before grilling the steaks, remove them from the refrigerator and allow them to come to room temperature.
- Heat a grill with coals.
- When the coals are hot, spread them out in the grill in one solid layer.
- Pat the steaks dry on both sides with paper towels and brush each side lightly with olive oil.
- Sprinkle them liberally with salt and pepper.
- Place the steaks on the hot grill and sear them on each side for 2 minutes, until browned.
- Place the lid on the grill and allow the steaks to cook for another 3 to 4 minutes, until they are cooked rare, or 120 degrees on a meat thermometer.
- (To test the steaks, insert the thermometer sideways to be sure you're actually testing the middle of the steak.)
- Remove the steaks from the grill, place them in one layer on a platter, and cover tightly with aluminum foil.
- Allow the steaks to rest at room temperature for 15 minutes.
- Slice and serve warm with the Stilton Sauce.
- Place the Stilton in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a steel blade and blend until finely minced.
- Add the cream cheese, mayonnaise, sour cream, scallions, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce.
- Process until smooth.
- Serve at room temperature.
