KOREAN BARBECUED FLANK STEAK
Recipe is from Rachael Ray's 30-Minute Get Real Meals. I use this all the time for my flank steak and get great reviews. It also can be served with her Hot and Sour Slaw Salad. I didn't include the time for marinating. Recipe calls for 10 minutes and I usually prepare it in the morning and let it sit in the fridge till dinner time.

Steps:
- In a shallow dish (or I use a plastic ziploc bag), combine the grill seasoning, tamari, honey, red pepper flakes , garlic, sesame oil, scallions and vegetable oil. Coat the flank steak in the mixture and let it stand for 10 minutes. (I usually do this in the morning and let it sit all day in the fridge.).
- Preheat an indoor electric grill (I use a Foreman grill) or outside grill to medium high. When the grill is screaming hot, add the meat and cook for 5 minutes on each side for medium rare, 7-8 minutes on each side for medium well or to your doneness. (On my Foreman grill it takes about 6-8 minutes for our tastes.).

Use a brush to coat the flank with some of the barbecue sauce. Turn and coat the other side. Continue cooking, brushing on the sauce and turning every 3 minutes until meat is cooked to medium rare, about 18 minutes total.

KOREAN BARBECUED FLANK STEAK WITH HOT & SOUR SLAW
Steps:
- In a shallow dish, combine grill seasoning, dark soy, a tablespoon honey, 1 teaspoon of the hot pepper flakes, half of the chopped garlic, sesame oil, scallions and a drizzle of vegetable oil. Coat the flank steak in the mixture and let it stand 10 minutes. Preheat a stove top grill pan or an outdoor grill to medium high. When the grill pan or grill is screeching hot, add the flank steak and cook 5 minutes on each side for medium rare, or 7 to 8 minutes on each side for medium doneness. For slaw, heat a large heavy skillet over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, cabbage and peppers. Season with salt and stir fry 2 or 3 minutes. Add a drizzle of honey, about 1 tablespoon, hot pepper flakes and garlic and toss to combine with cabbage. Add sauerkraut and mix it in, heating it through and through for about 1 minute. Turn off heat. To serve, let meat rest 5 minutes for juices to redistribute. Thinly slice the meat on a heavy angle against the grain (the lines in the meat). Pile the slaw up and top with sliced Korean steak and serve.

Steps:
- For marinade: mix all ingredients in processor or blender.
- Place steak in baking dish and pour marinade over.
- Cover and chill overnight, turning once.
- Prepare barbecue grill or preheat broiler.
- Cook steak 5 minutes on each side.
- Serve hot.
Tips:
- Use a flank steak that is at least 1 inch thick. This will help to ensure that the steak is cooked evenly and remains juicy.
- Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This will help to tenderize the steak and infuse it with flavor.
- Cook the steak over high heat for a short period of time. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside juicy and tender.
- Let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will help to redistribute the juices throughout the steak and make it more tender.
- Serve the steak with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or mashed potatoes.
