The Cracked Pepper "sauce", more like a butter, is amazing on cooked beef or chicken, yummy as a spread on toast (especially in a sandwich) and I imagine, would be fantastic on baked potatoes. Thanks for a terrific recipe!

I only made the cracked pepper sauce, but it was VERY nice! We "fondued" filet mignon chunks and served it with this sauce, Mustard Dipping Sauce Mustard Dipping Sauce and the garlic dill sauce (on "Love is in the Air" Beef Fondue & Sauces). Can't wait to try the others you list here, thank you!
