Mesa Steak Sauce:
1 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons freshly grated horseradish
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
Salt and freshly ground pepper
Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper to

Double Baked Horseradish Potatos:
4 large Russet potatoes, scrubbed
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 stick unsalted butter
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup cream
1/4 cup grated fresh horseradish
Salt and pepper
Sour cream
Chives
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Prick the surface of the potatoes a few times
with a fork then rub potatoes with oil, place on a baking sheet and bake in
the oven for about 1 1/2 hours, or until you can poke a thin bladed knife
into them. Remove them from the oven and let rest 10 minutes, or until cool
enough to handle.
Slice the potatoes in half vertically and carefully scrape the flesh into a
medium bowl, reserving the best 4 skins. Add the butter, milk, cream and
horseradish and mash until smooth, if the mixture is too dry add more milk.
Season well with salt and pepper to taste.
Fill each of the 4 skins with the mashed potato mixture. Place the filled
potatoes on a baking sheet and return to the oven, bake until lightly golden
brown, about 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and top with a dollop of
sour cream, a tablespoon of caviar and sprinkle with chives.
