I love a great steak.
I really love a great steak with a great sauce laid down on top!
I've got two great steak sauces to share with you that will take a great steak and make it amazing. But before we get to the sauces we need to grill some steaks!
These were thin cut ribeyes so I went with direct high heat at four minutes per side. This got them to a little above Medium Rare. Seasoning was salt and pepper only. These are really fun to grill!

The first steak sauce I want to share is a hearty Mushroom and Shallot Steak Sauce.
Start by cutting a shallot into a small dice then pan sauteing over medium heat in a tablespoon of unsalted butter until golden.
Next add 6 oz of rough chopped fresh mushrooms and add a teaspoon of salt to help draw out the moisture.
After about five minutes the mushrooms will have cooked down. At this point add 15 oz of low sodium beef broth. Bring the mix to a steady boil.
Let the mushrooms boil in the beef broth until the volume of the broth has reduced by half.
Remove the sauce from the heat and slowly whisk in 1/4 cup of heavy cream. Perfect!

Simply pour the creamy Mushroom Shallot sauce over your steak and get ready to enjoy something pretty incredible!
Next up is a delicious Red Wine Steak Sauce that is also very easy to prepare.
Just like our last sauce, start by sauteing a diced shallot in a tablespoon of butter until golden.
Next add a cup of red wine (I used a California Cab) and bring to a boil.
When the wine has reduced by about two thirds remove the mixture from the heat. Whisk in three tablespoons of butter one at a time.

The reduced wine, shallots and butter work in harmony to make a steak sing!
If you want to take your steak from great to amazing then give these two sauces a try!
