Transfer the garlic and shallot to bowl of mixer with paddle attachment. Add the remaining butter, blue cheese, lemon zest and juice, salt, pepper and parsley. Mix well. Turn mixture out onto 1/2 piece of parchment paper. Shape into a log and roll up in the paper. Refrigerate until needed. Slice into rounds to top hot steaks off the grill.
