Espresso-Bourbon Steaks With Mashed Sweet Potatoes image

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.

The steaks were a little tough, but the flavor was good.

I followed the recipe exactly and the steaks were overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This was my first time making espresso-bourbon steaks, and they turned out amazing! The marinade was easy to make and really infused the steaks with flavor. The sweet potatoes were also delicious and a great complement to the steaks.

I've made this recipe several times now, and it's always a winner. The steaks are always tender and juicy, and the mashed sweet potatoes are creamy and flavorful.

These steaks were a hit at my dinner party! The bourbon marinade gave them a delicious smoky flavor, and the sweet potatoes were the perfect side dish.
