Ingredients

  1. 4 tablespoons butter
  2. 1/2 cup diced onions
  3. 1/2 cup whiskey
  4. 1/2 cup beef stock or broth
  5. Dash of salt
  6. Freshly ground black pepper
  7. 1/4 to 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Cook the onions in the 3 tablespoons butter in a skillet over medium heat for a few minutes. When the onions are brown, turn off the burner temporarily so you won’t ignite your kitchen. Or yourself.
  2. Pour in the whiskey. As soon as it evaporates, turn the burner on medium-high heat and pour in the beef stock. Add salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste, then allow the mixture to bubble up and reduce by half.
  3. Whisk in the remaining tablespoon of butter, then reduce the heat to low. Whisk in 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup cream, according to your taste. Allow the sauce to simmer and thicken for a few minutes.
  4. Serve with beef, baby!

Wayne Rodriguez
We had prime rib (aged 7 days in refrigerator) last night (not Ree’s recipe), but did make her Whiskey Sauce. Velvety and rich. I did cool the sauce a bit and then use an immersion blender to purée the onions — just because I could.
Patrick Hill
Does anyone know if it’s possible to make this a day or two ahead and reheat?
Patricia Hamilton
Great addition to beef or chicken. I sub chicken broth and serve it smoked chicken thighs or sliced chicken breasts
