Close. It's brandy, and you don't set it on fire intetionally, but it's likely to happen.
Normally I'm not one to dress up asteak, but after eating strips for literally four days in a row I had to hit up the 'ol "Joy of Cooking" and come up with something.
Basically, you salt the steak, then crush whole peppercorns til they're coarse and push them into the steak. You cook the steaks dry in a cast iron pan, let 'em rest under some foil, reserve a little of the fat and briefly cook some minced shallot (like 15 seconds of cooktime for the shallots). Then you grab the pan off the heat, add some brandy, and reduce it til it's almost gone. Then you add a cup of beef stock and reduce it by half. Then you add some cream and reduce that by half. When that's done you add some chopped parsely and cover the steak. Fucking amazing. I had to put plastic wrap over my smoke detectors though -- my apartment looked like the set of a Cheech and Chong flick by the time the steak was done
