TS,

Just so I have an idea on proportions... The 2 cups of sauce, how many steaks will that work for? (Am cooking for 4 adults).

Roger on the congnac. I saw a hilarious you tube video of a guy cooking this and he had flames licking his kitchen ceiling.

Chef,

Got it.

Am planning on pressing in the peppercorns to the steaks and then searing them in the pan. I've seen some recipies that call for searing 1-2min per side and then popping in an 500degree oven for 5-7min after that. I guess I'll have to play that by ear, so as not to overcook the meat. I have a family of carnivores who prefer medium rare or rare meat.

Will scavenge up the ingredients and make this this week sometime.
