Peppercorn-Crusted Steak: A Classic French Recipe

    This was a huge hit at our house last night. We have had a real treat this summer with really good steaks, something I usually don't buy. The sauce was delicious and loved by everyone. Made for a very too late ZWT8.

    Steak Au Poivre, A classic in every French cookbook, Steak au Poivre is the perfect main course for a romantic meal. A recipe I found on About.com for French food. This is one that I would probably grill the steaks, as I love the added flavor they get from the grill, and then make the recipe for the sauce on the stove top or side burner. Note: You can use coarsely ground peppercorns in place of the black pepper stated for the recipe., This was a huge hit at our house last night.
