Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine the Creole seasoning and the oil. Mix well. Smear each steak with the rub. Allow the steaks to sit for at least 1 hour. Preheat the grill. Place the steaks on the grill and cook for 6 to 8 minutes on each side for medium rare. Remove from the grill and let rest for at least 5 minutes before serving. Serve the steaks with the sauce of your choice.
- In a saucepan, combine the vinegar, wine, peppercorns, shallots, and tarragon. Bring the liquid to a boil and reduce to 1 tablespoon. Add 1 tablespoon of water. Add the egg yolks and whisk, over low heat, until frothy, about 3 to 4 minutes. In a steady stream, add the butter until the sauce thickens. Season with salt and pepper. Strain the sauce through a chinois and set aside. Garnish with the parsley leaves.
- Combine the oil, onions, and jalapenos in a large heavy stockpot over high heat. Saute for 2 to 3 minutes, or until slightly soft. Add the garlic, pepper, anchovy fillets, cloves, salt, lemons, corn syrup, cane syrup, vinegar, water, and horseradish and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 6 hours, or until the mixture barely coats a wooden spoon. Strain. Spoon the hot mixture into 3 hot sterilized pint-size jars, filling to within 1/2 inch of the top. With a clean damp towel, wipe the rim and fit with a hot lid. Tightly screw on the metal ring. Process in a hot-water bath for 15 minutes. Using tongs, remove the jars, place on a towel, and let cool. Test the seals. Tighten the rings. Store in a cool, dark place. Let age for at least 2 weeks before using. Can be stored in the refrigerator in a covered jar or bottle indefinitely. Refrigerate after opening.
