Stir butter, lemon juice and 1/4 teaspoon salt into remaining seasoning in bowl; set aside.
Place steaks on grill over medium coals. Grill, uncovered, 2–3 minutes per side turning once. Since elk is naturally low in fat, it is best not to overcook as it tends to dry out.

Carve steaks crosswise against the grain into thick slices; season with salt as desired. Serve with vegetables.
