Note: This recipe appears in the South Beach Diet Taste of Summer Cookbook. Another Winner, Winner, steak dinner from the folks at South Beach. I'm not much of a coffee drinker but the coffee was delicious in this dish. Coffee often shows up in Texasin mop sauce. Mop sauce is a sauce that is used to mop, or baste, while it is cooking, resulting in a very moist and tender dish. Mop sauce came about hhen President Johnson threw a barbecue and called upon is favorite Pitmaster Walter Jetton to cook up a meal that often feed hundreds of people. This meal would be cooked on an open air fire pit that measured about 40 square feet. Walter would cover every square inch of this surface in ribs, roasts and meats of every variety. To keep the meat moist he mopped it, with a real mop. Hence the barbecue term, "mop." You can use any kind of steak, chicken, pork and certain kinds of fish with this mop sauce and you dinner will still be delicious. I do highly recommend seasoning the steak with freshly ground black pepper and garlic for a flavorful taste. Your family and friends will love this dish and keep coming back for more when you serve this dinner, trust me.
