1½ pounds sirloin steak, about 1 inch thick
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon plus ⅛ teaspoon pepper
⅓ cup balsamic vinegar
¼ cup finely diced shallots
1½ cups fresh blackberries
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
Directions
1. Heat grill to medium-high. Allow steak to come to room temperature; season with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Grill steak 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees for medium-rare. Set aside to rest for 10 minutes.
2. Meanwhile, combine vinegar and shallots in a medium saucepan set over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and reduce liquid by half, about 5 minutes. Stir in blackberries, thyme, honey and 1 tablespoon water. Bring to a simmer and cook until berries burst and sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
3. Slice meat thinly against the grain. Pour any accumulated drippings into sauce. Remove sauce from heat and stir in butter to melt. Add 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Sprinkle remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt over sliced meat. Serve with sauce.

That looks good! I think I'll go get a steak out of the freezer for tonight! We even have blackberries. Thanks for the recipe!
That looks great! !! Wow ok im off to show it to my wife hoping she will make it for me. Man that looks great!
Looks delicious, I like just about anything with fruit! The green beans look good too! Have a great day, and keep cool!

That looks so good. I wonder if I can find blackberries. We LOVE green beans too. I'm thinking it's a grillin' day here at our place:-)
I love meat with fruit …. Unfortunately husband doesn't 🙁
Yowzers….this sounds incredible.
Oh yeah, that looks SO good! And, you have beans from your garden; I bet you picked the blackberries too! 🙂
Love your new header also! 🙂
Thanks for sharing this. Now I just need a new grill!
Oh, wow! This looks and sounds delicious!!! I need to send this to my kids. Thanks!
Was at my Mom's today and she had the Family Circle magazine with this recipe!! She's making it too, said how good it looked!! Btw, where ever did you find that adorable owl that is in your header! I want him!!
Who would ever think to put that combination together? This is one I would certainly try- xo Diana
I've never heard of this combination either but I know I would love it! The sweet with the smokey…yum! We'll have to try this soon!
I love some blackberries, but I will have to buy them–I never pick them anymore! The LAST time I picked them, I was eaten alive by chiggers! Had a bad allergic reaction! Chiggers love blackberry patches!
I would have never thought to make a blackberry sauce to serve with meat! I love to try new things, so I'll have to try it!
I never would have imagined that combo would work, but it sounds like it did.
Yum, that looks delish! We did Low Country Boil over the weekend and it was just what I was craving too!
I'll have a bowl of those green beans pretty please!
