32 ounces filet mignon steaks
2 tablespoons black peppercorns Cracked
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 tablespoons cognac
1 cup dry red wine
1 cup beef broth
salt to taste
1 tablespoon dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon unsalted butter

1
Sprinkle steaks on both sides w/half the black pepper and press in well w/heel of your hand. Heat oil in large heavy skillet over medium heat. When oil is hot but not smoking, add steaks and cook to desired doneness: 3 minutes on each side for rare, 4-5 minutes for medium, and 5-8 for well done. Transfer steaks to warm platter and keep warm.
2
Add Cognac, wine, and broth to skillet and bring to boil over medium heat.
3
Cook until liquid is reduced to about 1/2 c, 8-10 minutes. Add all remaining ingredients except butter and cook over medium heat until sauce thickens a bit, 3-4 minutes. Swirl in butter until it blends smoothly.
4
To serve, place filet mignons on warmed dinner plates, and spoon some sauce over the top. (note: the only sensible side dish here is pommes frites, n'est-ce pas?)
