Grilled Steak and Eggs with Homemade Lager BBQ Sauce

My little netbook died a couple of weeks ago and I had to send it off to be fixed, so that is why I haven't posted a recipe lately. But it is all good now and working great! So I thought I would start my next post off with a bang! So here is the most amazing breakfast. This is by far my most favorite Breakfast! Who says you can't have Steak and beer for breakfast?! The sweet and tangiess of the sauce brings out the flavor in the steak and eggs. Serve this for breakfast the next time you have company and they might never leave! Great served with a side of hashbrowns or seasoned home fries. (FYI for those that don't drink, no fear the alcohol cooks out of the bbq sauce while it cooks. So don't let that ingredient stop you from making this delightful dish!)

INGREDIENTS:

FOR THE SUACE
1/2 tsp	unsalted butter
1/2 md	onion, finely diced
1 clove	garlic, minced
1 c	ketchup
1/2 c	1/2 cup dark corn syrup
1/2 c	apple cider or apple juice
2 Tbsp	sugar
1/2 c	lager-style beer
1 1/2 tsp	yellow mustard
2 tsp	lemon juice
1 1/2 tsp	worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 tsp	cayenne pepper
1 1/2 tsp	teaspoons paprika
1/2 tsp	salt
1/8 tsp	pepper
FOR THE STEAK AND EGGS
4	new york strip steaks
	salt and pepper to taste
1 Tbsp	vegtable oil
8	grilled eggs

DIRECTIONS:

1)To make the sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and garlic and saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients; bring to a boil, then simmer until the sauce is reduced to 2 cups, about 30 minutes.

2)Meanwhile, preheat a grill to medium-high. Season the steaks with salt and pepper and rub with the oil. Grill for 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest for 10 minutes. 

 

3)Grilled Eggs:
Place a cast-iron skillet on the grill; add butter, oil or bacon drippings. Crack in eggs and season to taste (I like to use a blend of paprika, sugar and onion powder, plus salt and pepper). Cook until the edges are crisp but the yolks are still runny, 2-3 minutes. Plate the egg on top of steak and drizzle the bbq sauce on top of steak and eggs.

*Tip: Any extra BBQ sauce that is left can be sealed in an air tight container in the fridge and can be used at a later date.
