In a small saucepan, combine 2 tablespoons butter, 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon water, 1 teaspoon ground chipotle chile pepper or chili powder, 1 teaspoon snipped fresh rosemary, 1/2 teaspoon celery salt and 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder. Cook and stir over low heat until the butter is melted. Simmer over very low heat for 2 minutes to combine flavors.
