This was a delicious way to have steak (we used strip steak). I added mushrooms to the onion sauce and eliminated the shallot. Also I didn't have any wine so we used just chicken broth instead of wine and chicken broth. We had this with baked potatoes and salad with oatmeal cookies for desert. A great dinner.

What a deliciously flavorful rub for sirloin steak. My husband grabbed the A-1 and Heinz 57 from the cabinet, but after the first bite he never even opened the bottles. Now that is quite a compliment! :o) The onion sauce was also wonderful. Great just as it is, I wouldn't change a thing.

We bbq'd the steak but we did flip it as we were scared we were going to burn it. That turned out to be a good choice as the bottom side of the steak was getting too black. (Maybe your suggestion not to flip the meat is for broiling only?) I loved the onion sauce, it was delicious. I will add a few mushrooms next time too. Thanks for the recipe.

My husband loves cooked onions, I usually am not a fan, but LOVED the onions the way they were prepared in this recipe! The steak was amazing with the onions and sauce on top. I did not put all of it on the potatoes but agree that mashed potatoes is the best side to have with it.
