Black Rock Steak Sauce Recipes

KIM'S ZIPPY SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the rosemary, thyme, garlic powder, parsley flakes and salt. Mix in the mustard, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, cumin, and cayenne pepper. Warm gently for about a minute. Mix equal parts of the sauce with beef steak drippings to complete the sauce just before serving.

STEAK ON A HOT ROCK WITH WILD HERB BUTTER

Steps:

• Make the Wild Herb Butter:
• Mix garlic, butter, and herbs in a small bowl. Transfer to a resealable container (small jars work well). Seal and store until ready to use.
• Cook the steak:
• Find 2 of the flattest rocks you can; they should be large enough to fit steaks and at least as thick (about 2" thick is perfect). Place rocks in the center of a fire pit and build a campfire on and around them. Let fire burn until hot coals have covered the rocks (you can help this along by pushing coals on and around them), about 30 minutes.
• Using tongs or heatproof gloves, move rocks away from flames and place them on top of a bed of hot coals. Sprinkle a few drops of water on the rocks-the rocks are ready when the water sizzles and skips across their surface.
• Brush steaks with oil and season generously with salt and pepper (really make it rain). Brush any coals or ash from surface of rocks and place 1 steak on top of each. Cook steak until it easily releases from rocks, 6-12 minutes per side for medium-rare, depending on how hot the rocks are. Check for doneness by touch, using an instant-read thermometer (125°F for medium rare), or by cutting into steak to see the internal color.
• Transfer steak to a plate or cutting board and place a nob of Wild Herb Butter on top. Let rest for 5 minutes. Cut steak into thick slices and divide among plates, dotting slices with more butter.
• Do Ahead
• Butter can be made and chilled for up to 5 days, or stored at room temperature for up to 2 days.

STEAKS WITH ROQUEFORT SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter and heat the oil in a skillet over high heat. Season steaks with salt and pepper, and quickly sear on both sides. Reduce heat to medium, and continue cooking steaks 5 minutes on each side, or to desired doneness. Remove from skillet and keep warm.
• Pour brandy into the skillet and stir to loosen browned bits from bottom. Stir in cream, and return to a boil. Cook and stir until sauce is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Mix cheese into the sauce until melted. Pour over the steaks to serve. Garnish steaks with parsley.

STRIP STEAK WITH PEPPER CREAM SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees F.
• Sprinkle steaks with kosher salt and crushed black pepper. Heat butter in a 12-inch, heavy bottomed saute pan over medium heat. Once butter is hot, add steaks and cook until browned on both sides, about 2 minutes per side for medium-rare and 3 minutes per side for medium. Remove steaks from pan and place on a rack set on a sheet pan; place in oven to keep warm.
• Add the stock to the saute pan and whisk until the crispy bits release from bottom of pan. Allow the liquid to reduce for 3 to 4 minutes over medium-high heat. Add cognac, heavy cream, and green peppercorns to the pan. Increase heat to high and cook, whisking continually, until sauce thickens slightly, just enough to coat the back of a spoon; this will take 5 to 7 minutes.
• Season the sauce, to taste, with kosher salt. Place steaks on plates, top with sauce, and serve immediately.

BLACK ANGUS NEW YORK STRIPS WITH MESA STEAK SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Preheat a grill pan over high heat until smoking. Brush the steaks with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes on one side until golden brown, turn over, reduce heat to medium and continue cooking for 5 to 6 minutes for medium-rare doneness.
• Whisk together the vinegar and mustard in a small bowl. Slowly whisk in the olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss the watercress in a few tablespoons of the dressing and arrange on a platter. Top with slices of the tomatoes and onions and drizzle with the remaining dressing. Sprinkle with the blue cheese.

STEAK WITH BLACK PEPPER SAUCE

Steps:

• For the marinade, mix well all ingredients. Place steaks in a resealable plastic bag, add marinade, close, shake to coat the steaks and leave to marinate for at least 2 hours.
• Take the steaks out of the marinade and cook (without any oil) in a well-heated frying pan on medium high heat for about 2 minutes on each side. Place the cooked steaks on a plate and set aside.
• Meanwhile, heat the saucepan used to cook the steaks. Add red wine and deglaze the pan. Simmer for a few seconds to allow the alcohol to evaporate.
• Add remaining crushed black pepper, beef broth, liquid collected from the cooked steak, cream and Worcester sauce. Simmer for few minutes and thicken the sauce with cornstarch solution.
• Arrange cooked steak on a plate with basmati rice. Ladle black pepper sauce over the steak and serve immediately.
• Serve with plain Basmati rice and green salad.

ZIP SAUCE- FROM A VERY POPULAR RESTAURANT IN MICHIGAN -EXCELLENT

Steps:

• Melt the butter, the restaurant clarifies it, but I don't take the time--excellent either way.

• Then add mushrooms.
• Simmer on low until mushrooms are done.
• This can be a bit salty so you may want to taste as you add the Maggi's.
• This is one of my specialties--everyone asks for the recipe.
