Why You’ll Love It

  • The crushed black peppercorns bring out the rich, beefy flavor.

  • Brandy, beef broth, cream, and butter blend into a smooth, bold sauce.

  • It’s balanced, creamy, and keeps well for a few days in the fridge.

  • Just reheat and pour over steak, chicken, pork, or veggies.


Ingredients

  • Brandy, cognac, or marsala — adds depth (alcohol cooks off)

  • Low-sodium beef broth — homemade or good-quality store-bought

  • Heavy cream — for a silky texture

  • Whole black peppercorns — coarsely crushed

  • Butter — added at the end for a glossy finish

  • Worcestershire sauce

  • Salt


How to Make the Sauce

  1. Boil the brandy in the same pan used for your steaks. Let it reduce.

  2. Add beef broth. Simmer until reduced by half.

  3. Lower heat. Stir in cream and peppercorns. Simmer until thick.

  4. Remove from heat. Mix in butter and Worcestershire. Salt to taste.


Tips

  • Use 1–2 tsp of peppercorns for mild heat, or more for extra punch.

  • Add cream slowly while stirring to avoid curdling.

  • Strain for a smoother sauce if needed.


Variations

  • Use green peppercorns for a milder, fresher taste.

  • Swap in a red wine reduction for a richer sauce.

  • Add Dijon for tang.

  • Stir in mushrooms for more depth.

  • Crumble blue cheese for a bold twist.

  • Toss in fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary.


Best Cuts to Serve It With

  • Rump Mignon

  • New York Strip

  • Ribeye

  • Sirloin

  • Tenderloin

  • Porterhouse

Also works great with grilled chicken, pork, salmon, or roasted veg like cauliflower, asparagus, and potatoes.


FAQs

Which peppercorns should I use?
