ESPRESSO-BOURBON STEAKS WITH MASHED SWEET POTATOES
A favorite recipe from National Cattlemen's Beef Association - The Beef Checkoff. We don't have steaks often, but this sounds so good that I might have to run out to the market for some tenderloins. I may also make this dish for my Christmas Eve dinner. This should "wow" my family and be a nice break from my traditional meal.

To grill, place steaks on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 10 to 14 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 11 to 15 minutes) for medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness, turning occasionally.
Tips:
- For the perfect espresso bourbon marinade, use a dark roast espresso with a smoky flavor. This will give your steaks a rich and complex taste.
- When grilling the steaks, make sure to sear them over high heat for a few minutes per side to create a nice crust. Then, reduce the heat and continue cooking the steaks until they reach your desired doneness.
- The mashed sweet potatoes are a great way to complement the savory steaks. Make sure to use fresh sweet potatoes and season them with plenty of butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the steaks in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.
