Best Whiskey Pepper Grilled Steak Recipes

BLACK ANGUS WHISKEY PEPPER STEAK

Steps:

• Fire up the barbecue.
• In a saucepan or deep skillet, make the whiskey pepper sauce by sautéing the white onions in the butter over high heat.
• In about 3 minutes the onions will begin to turn brown.
• Add 1 cup of the beef stock to the onions.
• Add the cracked black pepper and garlic at this point as well.
• Continue to simmer over medium-high heat until the sauce has reduced by about half.
• Add the whiskey, green onion, and remaining 1 cup of beef stock to the sauce and let it simmer over low heat while you prepare the steaks.
• Spread 1/2 teaspoon of cracked pepper over the entire surface of each side of the sirloin steaks and press it into the steaks so that it sticks.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Drop the steaks into the melted butter and sear each side of the steaks for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until brown.
• When the barbecue is good and hot, grill the steaks for 3 to 5 minutes per side or until they are done to your liking.
• Salt the steaks lightly as they grill.
• When the steaks are just about done, combine the cornstarch with the tablespoon of water in a small bowl.
• Stir just until the cornstarch dissolves. Remove the whiskey sauce from the heat and add the cornstarch to it.
• Put the sauce back on the heat and continue to cook on low until the sauce is thickened to the consistency you desire.
• Serve the steak doused with whiskey pepper sauce.

GRILLED RIB EYE STEAKS WITH WHISKEY PEPPERCORN SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat gas grill to medium-high (or prepare charcoal grill for cooking over moderate direct heat).
• Pat steaks dry. Rub with olive oil and then season both sides with course salt.
• Grill steaks for approximately 4-6 minutes on each side, until thermometer registers about 120°F for rare.
• 5. Transfer steaks to a cutting board and let stand 5-10 minutes before slicing. (Internal temperature will rise to 125 to 128°F while steaks stand.)
• Slice steaks across the grain and serve with peppercorn sauce.
• Heat peppercorns in a skillet over high heat for 1-2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of the butter and shallots and cook over medium heat until shallots are soft, about 4 minutes.
• Remove pan from heat and pour the whiskey into the skillet.
• Return pan to heat and allow flame to burn off the alcohol, if desired.
• Add cream and any liquid that has come out of the resting steaks to pan. Bring to a boil and cook for 1-2 minutes, so the sauce thickens.
• Turn off the heat and whisk in the remaining two tablespoons of butter and 1-2 tablespoons of the miso.

GRILLED STEAK WITH WHISKEY BUTTER

Steps:

• Grilling Method: Combo/Medium-High
• Make Whiskey Butter:
• Make Butter at least 3 hours in advance. Combine butter, shallots soaked in Jack Daniels (or other bourbon or whiskey), parsley, Worcestershire, mustard, whiskey, salt, and pepper. Mix well. On a piece of plastic wrap, drop butter in spoonfuls to form a log. Roll butter in plastic wrap and smooth out to form a round log. Refrigerate until hard and easy to slice into round, coin-shaped pieces.
• Prepare Steaks:
• Allow meat to come to room temperature about 15 minutes before grilling.
• Just before grilling, brush both sides of the steaks with the oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Place steaks directly over medium-high heat for about 1 to 2 minutes, just long enough to get good grill marks. Turn steaks and sear the other side. Move steaks to indirect heat and continue cooking for about 7 more minutes for medium rare.
• Remove steaks from the grill, top with a pat of the whiskey butter and allow to rest at least 5 minutes but no longer than 10 before serving.
• Spread the melted butter all over the tops of the steaks and top each with a fresh slice of the whiskey butter and parsley, if desired.
