Rib-Eye Steak With Black Peppercorn Sauce

Where is the beef? We love steak with black peppercorn sauce. This is a simple dish, yet elegant and always a winner. Everyone should try making it at home sometimes. My favorite cut of the beef is the rib eye. You can either grill the steak on a griddle pan or like me; I use my trusty gas grill. All you need to do is, heat the grill to a very high heat and cook them for a few minutes on each side. Of course, it all depends on how you like your steak done. I made some black peppercorn sauce for the steak too. The sauce is good for 4 to 6 servings.
