Attempting to cook the perfect steak with James May

We were all missing a bit of pub grub, so James decided to teach Lucy a recipe from his new cook book. Today's mission will be a couple of steaks, but Lucy also has a job for James on the side, her own version of peppercorn sauce!

Some Alton Brown tidbits about panfrying steak: use a cast iron or carbon steel pan, because Teflon non-stick pans can't take more than 475-500 deg. F before the Teflon starts to break down and offgas some nasty fumes. Once you are heating your cast iron or carbon steel pan, you can use a IR thermometer to get the temp where you need.

I believe the sauce was less than satisfactory because, at its essence, a peppercorn sauce is a PAN sauce. The steaks are sautéed in the pan. The steaks are removed, then the pan is deglazed with the alcohol. The peppercorns and (much less) cream are added, then reduced. That being said, I loved the banter between James and Lucy (which, I suspect, is the point of the show).

Put butter in a pan and saute mushrooms and onions, deglaze with a dark beer and several splashes of Worcestershire sauce. I always sear and then smoke my steaks in a Weber kettle. I'm telling you, you take a beautiful steak cooked over a wood fire ( I prefer Mesquite) and it will be one of the best steaks you've ever had. Add the mushroom and onion topping and it's fire!!
