8.6.09 Strip Steaks w/ beer,onion, basil sauce & garlic toast

I'm wondering if we eat much of anything without Garlic Toast...I feel like I'm part of the Sizzler Chain:) I finally figured out to make it ahead... pre -buttering, garlicking and freezing in 2 person serving sizes...then defrosting and baking 12-18 min in a 400 oven...delicious! Okay...back to the main event...Scott found Strip Steaks at a great price and we took the opportunity to make a 'poor man's' version of Chef John's delicious steak sauce, that calls for a very lovely liquor, which we did not have...and living so far away from a city where we can purchase liquor...beer would have to do...and it did! Scott's Strip Steaks with Lyssy Loo's beer beef oniony sauce:) 2 strip steaks, seasoned w/ s&p& garlic powder, seared in a cast iron skillet (on grill or indoors).. ok , we later tried this indoors and promptly set off the smoke alarm....outdoors is recommended. using the browned bits in the skillet, saute 1 small onion till tender- add 1T...
