Whiskey Butter Sauce

"Twenty years ago, October, James & Elizabeth were married on the dunes in Montauk NY. It was an elegant intimate affair, just immediate family and friends. They hosted the reception themselves and my prepared gift was a filet mignon served with this whiskey butter sauce. No one remembers the temperature that day being cold and cloudy, but everyone remembers this sauce!"

  1. WOW!! This was excellent. My son wanted to try some whiskey recipe and we saw this. I thought I'd take a chance even though it wasn't rated and we're so glad we did. I used Johnny Walker Red whiskey and Rice wine vinegar (all I had). We served it over thin sliced sirloin steak and rice. We weren't to hungry before but we could have eaten more with this sauce. We highly recommend this.

I'm a "newbee" to this site, but not to cooking. I love great food and to share recipes and this site is great! I don't know where the information of a "fry cook" came from, but I would consider myself anything else but that :) A NYC girl originally, lived in London and Canada where I am now. Met lots of interesting people along life's way who taught me a great deal and enriched my life with their knowledge of cooking. With my children now adults, the family has doubled in size and my commitment to making memories to pass down to another generation inspires me to cooking. I find cooking a creative expression of one's personality and never tire of new challenges in the kitchen.
