COFFEE-CRUSTED SIRLOIN WITH JALAPEñO RED-EYE GRAVY
Steps:
- Combine 1/2 cup ground coffee, garlic powder, pepper and salt in a flat-bottom soup bowl or pie plate. Dredge the steaks in the mixture, coating both sides. Heat the canola oil in a cast-iron skillet with an ovenproof handle over high heat. Spray the steaks with nonstick cooking spray. Sear the steaks in the skillet, turning to sear both sides. Transfer the skillet to a 450°F oven to finish cooking the steaks to the desired doneness. Remove the skillet from the oven; transfer the steaks to a plate and keep warm. Combine 1 cup brewed coffee and the stock in the hot skillet, stirring with a wooden spoon to incorporate all the brown bits. Cook over medium-high heat until the liquid is reduced to 1 cup. Add the jelly, brown sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch mixture and any accumulated juices from the steaks; mix well. Serve the gravy over the steaks.
COFFEE CRUSTED BEEF TENDERLOIN
Steps:
- Fold over thin end of meat and tie with string every inch or so along the length of the tenderloin.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Combine ingredients for the rub in a medium baking pan. Place meat inside pan and rub meat generously with the spice mixture. Let meat sit 15 minutes and repeat rub. Place meat on a rack in a roasting pan in preheated oven. Do not baste or cover meat.
- Immediately turn oven down to 400 degrees F.
- Roast until an instant-read thermometer stuck in the thickest portion of the meat registers 130 degrees F for rare to 145 degrees F for medium. Remove from oven and let meat rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with sage leaves,if desired.
RED EYE GRAVY
Red eye gravy gets its name from the appearance of the gravy's color. This gravy was originally made from the fat of ham steaks and then most often used as an added component to the ham dish. In this recipe, I will be using ham stock cubes as a substitute for fat drippings as an alternative.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly impact the flavor of your dish. Look for grass-fed, organic sirloin steak, freshly ground coffee, and flavorful spices.
- Don't overcook the steak: Sirloin steak is a lean cut of meat, so it's important to cook it quickly over high heat. Overcooking will make the steak tough and dry.
- Make sure the coffee crust is evenly browned: The coffee crust should be a deep, rich brown color. If it's too light, it won't have much flavor. If it's too dark, it will be bitter.
- Use a good quality red wine for the gravy: The red wine will add depth and flavor to the gravy. Choose a wine that you would enjoy drinking on its own.
- Don't be afraid to experiment: This recipe is a great starting point, but feel free to experiment with different spices and ingredients to create your own unique dish.
Conclusion:
Coffee-crusted sirloin with jalapeño red-eye gravy is a delicious and unique dish that is sure to impress your friends and family. The coffee crust adds a rich, savory flavor to the steak, while the jalapeño red-eye gravy is the perfect accompaniment. This dish is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal.
