ESPRESSO-BOURBON STEAKS WITH MASHED SWEET POTATOES
A favorite recipe from National Cattlemen's Beef Association - The Beef Checkoff. We don't have steaks often, but this sounds so good that I might have to run out to the market for some tenderloins. I may also make this dish for my Christmas Eve dinner. This should "wow" my family and be a nice break from my traditional meal.

ESPRESSO-BOURBON STEAKS WITH MASHED SWEET POTATOES
Steps:
- 1. Combine all sauce ingredients, except pepper, in small saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered 12 to 15 minutes or until sauce is thickened and reduced by about half, stirring occasionally. Stir in pepper. Keep warm. 2. Press coarsely cracked pepper on both sides of beef steak. Heat large nonstick skillet over medium heat until hot. Place steaks in skillet; cook 10 to 13 minutes for medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness, turning occasionally. 3. Meanwhile, prepare Mashed Sweet Potatoes. 4. Evenly divide sauce onto 4 plates. Place steak on top of sauce. Serve with Mashed Sweet potatoes and green beans. Mashed Sweet Potatoes: Place 9 ounces peeled and cubed sweet potatoes and 1 teaspoon salt in large saucepan. Cover with water; bring to a boil. Cook 4 to 5 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Drain. Combine potatoes, 2 tablespoons butter, 1/8 teaspoon salt and 1/8 teaspoon black pepper. Beat until mashed and smooth. Test Kitchen Tips To broil, place steaks on rack in broiler pan so surface of beef is 2 to 3 inches from heat. Broil 13 to 16 minutes for medium rare to medium doneness, turning once. To grill, place steaks on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 10 to 14 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 11 to 15 minutes) for medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness, turning occasionally.
Tips:
- To ensure the steaks are cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. For medium-rare, aim for 135°F (57°C), medium 145°F (63°C), and medium-well 155°F (68°C).
- When marinating the steaks, make sure to use a non-reactive bowl, such as glass or stainless steel. This will prevent the marinade from reacting with the metal and altering the flavor of the steaks.
- If you don't have time to marinate the steaks for the full 30 minutes, even a quick 10-minute marinade will help to infuse them with flavor.
- For the mashed sweet potatoes, use a potato ricer to get a smooth and creamy texture. If you don't have a potato ricer, you can use a fork or a potato masher, but the texture will be slightly chunkier.
- To make the bourbon sauce, use a heavy-bottomed saucepan to prevent scorching. Bring the sauce to a simmer and then reduce the heat to low, stirring occasionally, until it has thickened slightly.
Conclusion:
This menu of espresso bourbon steaks with mashed sweet potatoes and bourbon sauce is a delicious and impressive meal that is perfect for a special occasion.
