Made this last night and it was fantastic.  My husband and I like spicy food, so I pulsed 1 large jalapeño (with seeds) along with 1/2 red pepper and 1/2 yellow pepper (what I had on hand,) along with 1 stick of butter.  Put a T on top of 1/2 ear corn on the cob, wrapped them in foil and grilled.  Wonderful.  I also used some of the butter to top Ree's diced potatoes in foil recipe; worked great.  Today I'll use some more of the butter to sauté some diced onion, add shredded chicken, some salsa, some refried beans and shredded cheese and make Mexican Won Ton 'cupcakes.'  Good stuff... make extra, because you will use it!
