Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
Stephen Ceideburg
1 large 2-inch-thick steak, or 4 small 1-inch-thick strip steaks
1 tablespoon Black pepper corns, coarsely crushed
3 Garlic cloves, minced
½ teaspoon Coarse rock-salt or 1/4 teaspoon table salt
WHISKEY SAUCE
¼ pounds Butter
2 tablespoons Chopped onion
1 Garlic clove, minced
2 tablespoons Whiskey
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
½ teaspoon Dry mustard
1 dash Tabasco

Directions

Pour off any fat from cooking the steak. Melt butter in the same skillet over low heat; add onion and garlic and cook slowly until soft. Add remaining ingredients and simmer for a minute or two. Pour over steaks.

Trim excess fat from outside the steak. Press crushed peppercorns and garlic into both sides of the meat and let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.

Heat a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Grease the bottom of the hot skillet with a piece of fat trimmed off the steak. Toss in about half of the salt. Sear the steak or steaks quickly on one side, then lift out, add the remaining salt to the skil- let, turn the steak, and sear the other side. Reduce the heat to medium and cook the steaks as desired. Remove to a warm platter. Pour sauce over steaks and serve.
