MARINATED GRILLED CHUCK STEAK

This chuck steak marinates for at least 8 hours, so be prepared. For me, this is a different taste for steak, with the chili powder. But it goes well with the chuck steak and it turns out nice and tender. And it doesn't use soy sauce, so that extra sodium content is eliminated. Great for this less expensive piece of meat. Marinating time is not included in the prep time!

Time 50m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 lbs chuck steaks, about 1 inch thick
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons onions, minced
1 garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons ground ginger

Steps:

  • Trim excess fat from the steak, and place in a shallow container or a large zip lock bag.
  • Combine all the other ingredients, stirring well; pour the marinade over the steak. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 8 hours, turning once.
  • Take steak out of the refrigerator to let it sit while you are getting your charcoal ready on your grill. This will help relax the meat so it is even more tender.
  • Remove steak from the marinade. Grill over hot coals 8 minutes on each side, or until it reaches the desired degree of doneness. (I don't cook mine that long).

BEER MARINATED CHUCK STEAK FOR THE GRILL



Beer Marinated Chuck Steak for the Grill image

The Women's Day Encyclopedia of Cookery was my main resource as a teen learning to cook. This marinade from that book was my Dad's favorite marinade for steak -- almost always bone-in chuck steak. Every time I use it I think of Dad and remember how he taught me to grill on the little hibatchi that perched on the side of the useless, brick fireplace some previous owner of the house had built. Come taste a memory with me.

Time 4h20m

Yield 8-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

4 -6 lbs bone-in chuck steaks (about 3/4-inch thick)
12 ounces beer
1/2 cup vegetable oil (Dad used corn oil, I use Canola oil today.)
1 small onion
1 garlic clove
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt (I generally use 1/2 tsp anymore) (optional)
1/2 teaspoon pepper (I use 1/4 tsp fresh-ground)
1 teaspoon dry mustard (I sometimes substitute 1 tsp Heinz Brown prepared mustard)

Steps:

  • Slice onion paper-thin.
  • Peel garlic clove and put it through the garlic press.
  • Combine all marinade ingredients and stir well.
  • Pour marinade over steaks. Marinade 4-6 hours, turning steaks periodically. Do NOT over-marinade because beer marinades make the steak bitter if soaked too long.
  • Preheat your grill. You want a medium-high heat -- enough to get some good sizzle. There's no beating the flavor you get from a charcoal grill, but a gas grill will do the job. I do NOT recommend trying this on an electric, tabletop grill.
  • Grill 7-10 minutes per side or until you reach the desired doneness.
  • As you cook, drop a few bits of the onions from the marinade onto the coals or burner-covers to make an aromatic smoke which flavors the meat in a way really sets this recipe apart from other beer marinades.
  • The marinade will have tenderized the steak significantly, but if you cook it well-done it will almost certainly be tough anyway so I recommend medium-rare to medium.

Tips:

  • Look for chuck steak with good marbling, as this will help keep the steak tender and juicy during cooking.
  • If you don't have time to marinate the steak overnight, you can marinate it for at least 30 minutes. However, the longer you marinate it, the more flavorful it will be.
  • When grilling the steak, cook it over medium-high heat for 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
  • Let the steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
  • Serve the steak with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a green salad.

Conclusion:

Marinated chuck steak is a delicious and affordable cut of meat that is perfect for grilling or pan-searing. By following these tips, you can make sure that your steak is cooked to perfection and bursting with flavor.
