Ingredients

• 2 pieces Ribeye steak (1-inch thick)
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 1 small Shallot (finely diced)
• 0.25 cup Bourbon
• 0.5 cup Beef stock
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves

Directions

Step 1

Remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling.

Step 2

Preheat your grill to high heat (around 450-500°F).

Step 3

Rub the steaks with olive oil, then season both sides evenly with kosher salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

Step 4

Place the steaks on the hot grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or adjust cooking time depending on your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature, aiming for 130°F for medium-rare.

Step 5

Transfer the steaks to a plate, cover them loosely with aluminum foil, and let them rest for 5-10 minutes.

Step 6

While the steaks are resting, prepare the bourbon sauce. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.

Step 7

Add the diced shallot to the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until softened and fragrant.

Step 8

Carefully add the bourbon to the pan (be cautious of any flame-ups) and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes to cook off the alcohol.

Step 9

Stir in the beef stock, heavy cream, brown sugar, and thyme. Simmer the sauce for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it thickens slightly.

Step 10

Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed.

Step 11

Serve the grilled steaks hot with a drizzle of bourbon sauce over the top. Enjoy!
