**A Masterclass in Grilling and Whiskey Glazed BBQ Sauce**

We're standing in front of a beautifully seasoned 4-quart black iron saucepan, ready to embark on a culinary journey that will leave our taste buds singing. Our goal is to create a mouth-watering whiskey-glazed BBQ sauce that will elevate any grilled steak to new heights. In this masterclass, we'll take you through every step of the process, from preparing the ingredients to the final presentation.

**Searing the Veggies**

First things first, let's get our veggies ready for the grill. We're using a mix of colorful vegetables, and we want them to be caramelized to perfection. To achieve this, we'll sauté them in about 1/4 cup of good cooking oil over high heat until they're tender and lightly browned. This process can take a while, so it's essential to stay patient and focused. As the veggies cook, the natural sugars will start to break down, creating a rich and savory flavor that will complement our whiskey-glazed BBQ sauce perfectly.

**Adding Aromatics**

Next, we'll add a couple of cloves of garlic to the pan. We want to caramelize them along with the veggies, but we also need to be careful not to burn them. The aroma that fills the air is incredible, and it's essential to capture this essence in our final product. As the garlic cooks, its pungency will meld with the sweetness of the veggies, creating a depth of flavor that will make our BBQ sauce truly unforgettable.

**Making the Gravy Base**

With our veggies and aromatics ready, it's time to move on to the gravy base. We'll add 4 tablespoons of sweet butter to the remaining oil in the pan and melt it down. Next, we'll sprinkle in about 4 tablespoons of flour, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. The mixture will start to thicken, and this is where the magic happens. By adding a teaspoon or two of time (white wine) and mixing it into the gravy base, we're creating a rich and savory foundation for our BBQ sauce.

**Adding Whiskey**

Now it's time to add the star of the show: whiskey. We'll pour about 1-2 tablespoons of good quality whiskey over the gravy base, making sure not to ignite the mixture (we want to avoid a flare-up!). The whiskey will add a depth and complexity to our BBQ sauce that's hard to replicate with any other ingredient.

**Adding Stock and Finishing Touches**

With our gravy base and whiskey in place, it's time to add about 2 cups of beef stock. This will bring the entire mixture together, creating a rich and velvety texture that's perfect for slathering over grilled steaks. We'll also add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste, making sure everything is balanced and harmonious.

**Grilling the Steaks**

Now it's time to put our steaks on the grill. We're using high-quality Angus strip steak, which requires careful attention to avoid overcooking. By searing the steaks for about 2-3 minutes per side over direct heat, we'll create a crust that's crispy and flavorful. Next, we'll move them to indirect heat, where they'll finish cooking to our desired level of doneness.

**Finishing Touches**

As the steaks rest for a few minutes, it's time to plate everything up. We'll pour two scoops of whiskey gravy over each steak, making sure to coat every inch of the meat evenly. The result is nothing short of breathtaking – a perfectly grilled steak smothered in a rich and savory whiskey-glazed BBQ sauce.
