3 whole jalapenos

3 bell peppers, choose 3 different colors

2 1/2 pounds small potatoes, such as baby Yukon gold or small red skin potatoes, coarsely chopped

Salt

4 slices bacon, chopped

2 tablespoons chipotle powder, divided

1 small onion, chopped

1 cup sour cream

1 tablespoon dark chili powder

1 tablespoon ground cumin

2 tablespoons grill seasoning (recommended: Montreal Steak Seasoning by McCormick)

2 large T-Bone steaks 1 1/2 inches thick, 2 1/2 pounds total

3 tablespoons vegetable oil, 3 turns of the pan, divided

1/4 cup bourbon, eyeball it

Seed and slice the hot and sweet fresh peppers and reserve.

Cover potatoes with water and bring to a boil. Add salt to boiling water. Cook potatoes until tender, 10-12 minutes. Chop and brown bacon in a small skillet and add a tablespoon of chipotle powder and onions. Cook 5 minutes over medium heat until onions are tender. When potatoes are tender, drain and return to hot pot. Add bacon mixture and sour cream to the potatoes. Smash potatoes and season with salt, to taste.

While potatoes are working, combine dry spice rub: chili powder, remaining chipotle powder, cumin and grill seasoning. Rub steaks liberally on both sides with the mixture. Heat a 12 to14-inch skillet screaming hot. Add 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, 2 turns of the pan. It will smoke. Add steaks and do not turn for 6 minutes. Flip and cook another 6 minutes for medium rare, up to 10 minutes for well done. Remove skillet from flame and add bourbon. Return steaks to stove and flame the pan. When the fire goes out, transfer the meat to a large serving platter and pour pan juices over the top. Let meat rest for juices to redistribute. Return pan to heat and add remaining tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet. Add hot and sweet peppers to the pan and saute them for 5 minutes. Season with salt and pile peppers alongside steaks.

Remove meat from the T bones and cut into 4 portions. Top with some peppers and pile some chipotle smashers along side. Spoon drippings and juices over meat and serve.

Excellent and flavorful
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

If you like spicy food, this is an excellent meal. Will definitely have this again. My husband loved it. I had never... cooked a steak like this, so I was a little hesitant. It turned out well. Do not leave heat on screaming hot or outside of steak will be burnt. Next time will try to cook on medium. Very smoky, best to cook outside, if possible. Potatoes were excellent and did not think chipotle spice was too strong.Read more

Outstanding!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

Man this one is a Winner! If you like spices, You will Love it! I made it last night. Exactly as the recipe stated and it was... amazing. We couldn't find chipotle powder, but we did find dried chipotles and put them in the food processor. I will be making this one again. It will be a good meal to serve when friends come over to watch football.Read more

This spice should be bottled, so I did it myself
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I use this spice on everything, including fish and fried potatoes. As far as people complaining about the smell to me poppori... doesn't get any better than this!!! This is one of your best, but I think I've said that 100 times before. Keep up the good work your my hero. Cooking is my life I wish I could get an opportunity to do something with it. Have A Nice Day!!!!Read more

Steak was great but I couldn't taste the spuds. Mmm peppers!
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Unless you LOVE spicy food, seriously cut back on the chipotle powder. That stuff is powerful. I couldn't even taste the... potatoes. The peppers were really great because the sweetness balanced the fiery hotness of the steak. The steak was cooked PERFECTLY but I would recommend that once the pan gets "screamin' hot" you lower the heat to medium because the outside burnt a little. For medium rare, don't cook as long as 6 minutes on the second side.Read more

I have never cooked steak before so this was my first time. It turned out to be better than I expected! Delicious I might... add!!! Along with the mash potatoes and veggies, it was very good and tasteful. Will absolutely make it again. My fiancee loved it!!! He said it was a great idea for a Valentines dinner. Worth the time and effort in cooking it!Read more
