    Loved it, great compound butter recipe, especially for a boy from NEW YORK CITY... get a rope.. Seriously, it was quite lovely. We had the lobster tails with smashed purple potatoes and fresh Florida green beans. It was a lovely meal, and we think the Cascabel chili butter will work well with many entrees.
