Steps
At least a few hours and up to 1 month before you plan to cook , make the butter.
In a small skillet over medium heat , heat the oil.
Add the cilantro , shallot , and garlic and cook for 2 to 3 minutes , stirring often , until the shallot is soft.
Transfer to a bowl and set aside to cool.
In a medium bowl , cream the butter with a fork.
Add the cilantro mixture and blend well.
Transfer to a 12-x-12-inch sheet of waxed paper and form into a log about 8 inches long in the center of the sheet.
If the mixture is too warm to handle , just refrigerate for a couple of minutes until it is ready.
Roll the butter up in the waxed paper to make a firm log and twist the ends to hold it tight.
Place in the freezer until firm.
One hour before you plan to cook , make the rub.
In a small bowl , mix together the chili powder , salt , granulated garlic , onion powder , and smoked paprika.
Add the oil and mix well.
Place the steaks on a big platter and brush the wet chili rub evenly on both.
