Ingredients

For sauce:
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 medium onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups ketchup
1/2 cup molasses
1/2 cup apple cider
1/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup lager-style beer
1 tablespoon yellow mustard
2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon paprika

3 (1 pound each and 1/2-inch thick) prime-aged New York Strip Steaks
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Directions

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

Preheat grill pan. Season steak with salt and pepper and rub with oil. Grill steak about 3
minutes per side for medium-rare. Let rest 10 minutes and serve with sauce on side.
