Food Network magazine's cocoa-rubbed steak with bacon-whiskey gravy

I had planned on cooking and sharing a new recipe tonight, but since my oven is still out of commission after waiting almost 2 weeks for a part to arrive (it was the wrong part), I had to save that one for later.

But, I did want to share this yummy-looking recipe from the March issue of Food Network magazine that combines 2 of my favorite things: strip steaks and chocolate.

Though I haven’t had a chance to make this yet, I think the recipe would be just fine sans gravy if you prefer. (But who doesn’t love gravy?)

And, if you get the chance, pick up a copy of this magazine while it’s still on the newsstands. There are some super yummy-looking desserts inside!
