Creamy and peppery, this sauce is built for steaks, burgers and other grilled meats. It comes as a ready-made chilled or frozen-style accompaniment, depending on store format, and usually needs gentle reheating before serving. Cracked peppercorns give it a speckled look and a warm, sharp bite, while the cream base keeps the texture smooth and pourable. In Sainsbury’s range, it sits alongside other cook-from-scratch-style sauces rather than the supermarket’s jarred shelf sauces, so it’s meant to be served hot and spooned over the plate rather than used straight from the pack.
