If you're gonna do your side of seared medium-rare beef such a disservice (or, in this case, accidentally overcooked it and need to add some moisture and flavor back in), why not slather it with the best of condiments?
Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce to you BEER KETCHUP. Three parts ketchup to one part beer. Mix to combine, and enjoy.
A great beer on its own, Innis & Gunn is described by its crafters as a "smooth Scottish beer with natural hints of toffee, vanilla and oak." The interplay between the tangy ketchup, the fizzy beer and its undertones, and the salty steak, the harmony created by these three usually separated friends communicates to us through our mouths the feeling of liveliness just as the Beatles' harmonies do to us through our ears. This is not a mere mindless "manly" meal, calling for a bloody hunk of beef clumsily washed down with some alcohol. This is joy, happiness, a virtuous, peaceful way of life calling out to us in the only way we all can recognize: through serendipity, showing us that there is some greater power watching us from above looking to make sure taste buds experience something that even we may not have, but bringing it closer to us still so that we know that there is still good in the world, that there is always a brighter future, a optimistic side to every problem that can help us overcome our most stubborn of poor habits, our forget our most scarring of bad memories, and realize that we are all friends, and it just takes the right attitude.
Also, I like steak and beer. So there you go.
Beer ketchup. The next best thing for steaks.
