Prepare The Marinade:

Italian seasoning, ¼ tsp. salt, ¼ tsp. pepper, and ¼ tsp. red pepper flake in small bowl. Stir to combine completely using a fork or small whisk.
Place the chuck steaks in a cake pan or flat-bottomed pan. Pour the marinade over the steaks and toss until they are all completely coated.Place plastic wrap over the top of the cake pan and place in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
Prepare The Compound Butter:
Place 1 stick of room temperature butter in a small bowl. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 Tbsp. of fresh rosemary, and 1 Tbsp. of fresh thyme to the butter. Stir to combine using a fork or hand mixer.Scrape the butter onto a piece of plastic wrap and roll it into a log. Pinch the ends of the plastic wrap together to hold the butter together. Place the butter log in the fridge and allow to harden.
Grill The Steak:
Heat a charcoal or gas grill.After the steaks have marinated for 24 hours place them on the uncovered grill in the direct heat. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side. Move the steaks to the indirect heat, cover, and continue to grill until they reach your desired level of doneness. It is important that the steaks are cooked, but be careful not to overcook them, or they may become tough. The safe internal temperature for beef is 145 degrees. This can be checked using a grilling thermometer.
Remove the steaks after they have reached your desired level of done-ness and place a pat of the compound butter on each of them. Allow the steaks to rest for a few minutes as the butter melts.Cut the steaks into strips and serve.
