I don't really have an exact recipe, but I can describe how I do it. After cooking the steak in a stainless steel pan, deglaze it with some brandy or cognac (watch it, it'll light up). I then add shallots and some butter for a few minutes on medium heat.
Then more booze, I add roughly equal parts port wine, balsamic vinegar, and beef consomme, or if you can find it, some beef demi-glace (you'll need a little beef or chicken stock too this way). Demi-glace is expensive, but the one in this link is borderline life changing.
It'll need some salt and lots of pepper. If you'd like to use regular red wine instead of port you can do that, and then throw in a bunch of cherries and mash them up while the sauce reduces (until silky). If you do this, you'll want to make sure to strain the sauce before using it. It's very delicious, one of the dishes people most frequently ask me to make them.
I use the same method and it comes out so good. Also love BTB. Much cheaper/better tasting than store bought stock. I do want to try this though. I hear it's is one of the best substitutes for a homemade stock.
that was my reaction to homemade demi glaze. I have had good luck with this prodcut
You're right. This one looks much better and has much better reviews. I think I'll get that next time.
