Steak & Mushroom Mustard Gorgonzola Sauce

I love a great steak (cooked on a Bull Gas Grill or for a little smokiness on a Bison Charcoal Grill) and most steak aficionados will agree that a good steak doesn’t need sauce. However, I think some steaks benefit from an awesome sauce. Personally I love to pair a sauce with a less tender or less quality cut. One of the sauces I love to make is a symphony of flavors that perfectly complements the beefy goodness of a New York Strip. The sauce is layered with earthy mushrooms, slightly spicy mustard powder, and creamy gorgonzola to become the perfect companion to a steak. It also works well over chicken or pork.

I like tossing the mushrooms in a little oil and salt before grilling them with their top facing down. This will help them retain moisture.

I prefer to use mustard powder but you can easily use deli or dijon mustard.

Chef Anthony Pro Tip – Pull the steaks out of the fridge 45 minutes prior to grilling allowing them to come to room temp. Brush lightly with avocado oil and season with salt & pepper.

When adding a sauce I like to use the drizzle approach. Sometimes with a rich sauce less is more.
