Hi Ben,

Here is the recipe for “Thumb Bit” Sauce which accompanies boneless sirloin or filet sliced on the diagonal. I think this was served at the old Pen and Pencil Steakhouse in New York City. It was one of my Uncle Jim and Aunt Fran’s favorite restaurants and she came up with this version of the sauce:

4 oz. butter

1/3 cup ketchup

2/3 cup water

1T Worchester Sauce

1T Liquid Mustard Sauce **

1 heaping tablespoon of brown sugar

3T of creamy French dressing

Miss in saucepan and simmer slowly for 20 or 30 minutes.

Yum!

Best,

Patricia White Kearney
