Tips
Drizzle over slices of Easy Roasted Beef Tenderloin, or serve in a sauce boat on the side. Also makes a delicious dipper or chilled sandwich spread.
Wary of sauce dripping on the buffet table? Make it a sandwich spread instead – dollop on roast beef slices, or spread on roast beef sandwiches arranged on a platter (try big, soft, sesame-speckled buns or thick slices of crusty artisanal bread).
