Bourbon Peppercorn Steak Sauce

Bourbon Peppercorn Steak Sauce

3 servings
This recipe is based on parts, 1/2 part worsty, 1 part this and that and 2 parts whisky or bourbon, or rum, or cognac,... so it is very easy to increase the amount of servings and vary the flavor profile. If it sits overnight, the flavors really have time to blend and it's really good even if it's made while the steak cooks.

  • worcestershire sauce
    ½ tbsp
  • butter
    ½ tbsp
  • maple syrup
    1 tbsp
  • peppercorn
    1 tbsp

  3. 3

    Microwave for 30 seconds, stir. Microwave again for 30 seconds, stir it again and repeat one more time. Cooking time will need to be increased with amount of servings. To cook on stovetop, bring to boil quickly, simmer on low for 5 minutes and turn off the heat. Store in fridge for next day use, reheat in microwave or simmer on low.
