Steak au Poivre / Peppercorn Steak Chef Jean-Pierre

[@michaelscheffler6073]

I think I am about this guy's age and I started cooking professionally when I was in my late teens; around 1980 - this means I can relate absolutely to what Jean-Pierre is doing and saying - this is as good as it gets!! Take this guy seriously - I most certainly do...!

It's been 2 years since JP put this video up and I can honestly say I've made this at least 50 times for friends, family and just about anyone with a love for good steak. It's become my signature steak dish. At around the 30th time I revisited the video and sure enough, JP says "the stock is VERY important" and he's right. If you can make your own stock the improvement is phenomenal. I think it's mainly putting the tomato in the beef stock but it's certainly worth the time and effort to make a good fresh beef stock of your own for this. I do like a little dash of red wine in the sauce now, it gives the whole dish a real depth. I'd go into a rant about how JP changed my life during Covid because restaurants were closed so I learned to make my own good meals and well, when they re-opened I went back and realized that I'd been enjoying sub-par cooking and paying a premium for it. The joy of cooking is worth the effort. 3 years later I'm thinking of quitting my job as an engineer and opening my own, just because my food is so much better than what's out there, and it's all thanks to Chef JP. Truly a great teacher, but also a very good chef.

You should start by sharing your knowledge with us via videos. Compile all that knowledge and passion you have gained these past few years and give us some go to recipe's you have learned. Play around with flavors and make them your own, but don't go rushing out and opening a restaurant when you have only been going at it since covid hit. Restaurants are the biggest logistical nightmare ever and margins are paper thin. On the other hand, KZbin ads pay well, require 10000000000000th the investment of a restaurant and us, the viewers, get to see your food :)

[@andreiverdes]

I've been having the same thoughts. I'm an engineer and I've been cooking for a while now and I've ruined all my restaurants when it comes to brunches, steak, pastas and coffee. I do a truffled carbonara to die for. I sometimes add a few shrimps with the guanciale and it's just amazing! It actually became a restaurant rating system. A quick browsing through the menu and if I see cream in the carbonara I run out of there faster than a teenager to his gf's house when parents aren't home. I'm getting of track here, yeah, I too think of opening a restaurant...or at least a food truck...

[@boardmandave]

That is a great line it's also true margarine was a by-product plastic manufacturer just as aspartame which is in Diet Coke and all sugar free items. They are chemicals our body doesn't understand and they are passed off as being healthy I think it's very wrong

[@EJN64]

Even the guy in the background smiled at that one

[@mi5anthrope]

I most certainly prefer butter, but chemically speaking, being one molecule away from something doesn't actually mean anything. Water is just one atom away from hydrogen peroxide, nitrogen (which is primarily what we breath) is one atom away from ammonia. Sodium chloride is part sodium, a metal that reacts violently with water, ingesting pure sodium would kill you gruesomely. It's also partially chloride, which was used in a gas form to kill soldiers in World War 1 - put them together and you get wonderful magical table salt :). We need water to live, but if you drank nothing but heavy water - an isotope of water this is still technically H2O - you will slowly replace the normal water in your body with deuterium oxide, and will die horribly :( I'll never personally use margarine and it could very well have other health concerns, but the "one away" danger thing is just an old myth.

[@MrdGVeteran]

@@mi5anthrope Interesting you mention deuterium, which is high in vegetable oils because of the way they're made, which is what margarine is made of. Animal fats on the other hand are quite low in deuterium, around 120ppm. Eat your butter/tallow/lard friends!

My wife told me that when she was in her early twenties and visiting Calais that she tried and loved steak au poivre. I had never heard of it, so I looked up a recipe online and tried to make it myself. I like to barbecue, so instead of pan frying the steak, I grilled it over an applewood fire. I had purchased green peppercorns on Amazon but they were dried, not in brine, so I hydrated mine in bourbon. It turned out great and more important, my wife loved it. Of course, grilling means no pan deglazing but there is a smoke element that emerges. Going to try Chef’s method next time.

leaving the towel on the handle is KEY. I once absentmindedly grabbed a stainless steel sautee pan that i had just roasted a chicken in, and I burned most the skin off of my hand. It's healed now, but I learned a valuable lesson. Also I'm now a subscriber. Love your channel

[@debbiehutchinson3119]

I absolutely love watching you and sinking in everything. Learn't so much.. I was brought up with not being allowed around kitchen...had to go on my bike and come home before dark for tea. 3 plain over cook vegies and meat. So very eye opening to everything the way you explain and light hearted. Am 62 on my own enjoying you and your meals. Cooked peppered steak tonight for me... Thanks for giving me abit of Mojo back...and have cooked for alot of your delicious recipes now. XOXO

Buy beef broth and add tomato paste, celery, carrots, leeks, and onyo and let it simmer. Chef I thank you!! The best tip I've ever gotten..... delicious. You are a gem 💕

[@reverseetc]

I've made this so many times over the summer now, it's become one of my favorite things to to in the kitchen. I've also fallen so in love with the au poivre sauce that I've modified it a bit to use as a secret burger condiment (I use fewer green peppercorns for this and give it time to thicken a bit), and everyone who has tried it has been absolutely blown away by it. I'd go as far to say it'll probably be a strong memory of the summer of 2021 for me. Thank you so much for this one, it really worked its way into our core recipe collection quickly.

[@Pteromandias]

She liked it that much, huh?

[@craigtrent2410]

ok, now i wanna know more.....whats the secret condiment and whats the technique?

I made this tonight and didn't have a good stock prepared, but that sauce still blew me away! Going to try this again within the week lol

[@robinfox4440]

This chef has an incredible attitude and I am 100% here for it.

[@kenwoodfl]

The first time I had this was in San Geronimo CA at a place called Two Birds. Tony made this in his tiny kitchen you could see from the table. I haven’t been there in more than 30 years, but I still remember the laughs, the smells, and the NY Strip pepper corn steak. You brought me right there again. Thank you!!

[@iamsam8446]

I like this chef's character. Some French chef's are difficult to understand, but not this one. You can tell he wants to make something that tastes good.

[@Fray2221]

"You can't cook steak in butter, your butter will burn." Yes. This is the first lesson I ever learned in cooking. Some people still haven't figured it out.

[@billc6087]

I once went to a restaurant in Geneva, Switzerland, called 'Carnivore' - yes, true - and a guy I was with ordered a steak which was thinner than this one, but they brought out a really hot chafing dish, and added about a pound of butter. It melted and steamed up quickly and they dropped in the steak. It sizzled and smelled great and they basically basted it for a few minutes until it was done medium rare. It was amazingly good! I think European butter has a higher fat content than American butter. Dunno. But the bite I had was fantastic!

[@commonsensecraziness7595]

Yes, but I thought it was strange that he used olive oil as the substitute. Isn't olive oil easy to burn as well? Why not use a neutral oil then if burning is the concern?

[@Fray2221]

​@@commonsensecraziness7595 Olive oil is the only right way to cook a steak. If your olive oil is burning your stove it too high. If you are flash frying something in a wok you might want to use a neutral oil, but generally oilve oil will do the job on almost any dish.

[@MrDavekek]

@@billc6087 I think youre right regarding the butter. I went to culinary school in northern Europe and we were taught to always cook steaks in butter with a splash of neutral oil to prevent it from burning. Much better than using oliveoil which will add a slight bitter taste to the product.

I've been making this sauce for years, because it's that good. So good that my ex partner would just pour it on the plate to eat after finishing the steak. I did have a laugh when you said "if your guests want more". Every single one will😆 It's actually a kid friendly sauce when you use green, rather than just black, peppercorns. My daughter (7yo) loves it.

[@katiemcdavid4124]

I hate myself for not finding this channel sooner. Since i discovered you yesterday I must have watched 30 of your videos already and I love them all. Everything is explained so nicely, you offer substitutes for ingredients and have reference videos for certain ingredients as well such as the potatoes in this recipe. Love the classic meals you prepare, so much of youtube is "junkfood" such as burgers, nachos, buffalo chicken etc, but sometimes you just want to eat like a king! Thank you my friend :)

[@drob841]

Ive been making my own version of Steak au Poivre for years, I really enjoy it! For my birthday yesterday, I decided to do a "Jean-Pierre" but still my style version of steak au poivre. I don't have homemade beef stock so I added a little tomato puree, Dijon mustard, garlic powder, thyme and some whole peppercorn to some beef broth and let it "bloop bloop" for an hour. Sous Vide a Ribeye for 2 hours at 133F and seared for a minute and half per side in fresh bacon grease (ill add the bacon at the end). Took them out to rest, added a little avocado oil and threw in some shallots for a minute or two and added some fresh chopped garlic until fragrant. Deglazed with a couple ounces of Bourbon (not a fan of Cognac), added some of my fortified beef broth, added cream to color. Mixed well and reduced a little, added more peppercorn, fresh rosemary, bacon, rested steak juices and finally added the butter to finish. Was told I could sell that at a steak house for $60 easily! Thanks JP for upping my game!

[@ChefJeanPierre]
