In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Let cool slightly.
In a blender, mix herbs, worcestershire sauce, hot sauce, and lemon juice. Slowly add melted butter, and blend until incorporated. Do not over mix, or herbs will bruise. Transfer mixture to a metal bowl, and place bowl in an ice bath. Whisk until cool, and mixture has emulsified. Place mixture in freezer for 5 minutes. Remove from freezer and continue mixing until butter is thick and reconstituted.
Divide mixture in 2. Place half of butter on a large piece of plastic wrap. Roll tightly into log. Repeat with other half.
Store in refrigerator until use.

Preheat oven to 400 F. Butter the inside of an 8 x 8 baking dish with 1 tbsp butter.
