REALLY GOOD STEAK MARINADE



Really Good Steak Marinade image

My mantra has always been 'don't mess with a good steak by marinating it', but this marinade is really yummy. I've used it on several different cuts, from less expensive chuck, flank and even brisket, along with sirloin and NY strip. The servings are flexible, depending on size of steaks and portion size. It does make a lot of marinade.Cook time doesn't include marinating time, and depends on how you like your steaks, ie: rare, med. or well done, and how thick the steaks are, so it was just a guesstimate.

Friends of ours invited us over and made steaks using this marinade. It was SO GOOD! We had to have the recipe. Adding other ingredients to it didn't make it better, at least not for us.

Categories     Steak

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup balsamic vinegar
1 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup olive oil
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
2 pinches cayenne pepper
4 1/2 lbs rib eye steaks

Steps:

  • Marinate steak in sauce with all ingredients combined overnight. Grill.

Nutrition Facts : Calories 1648.2, Fat 126.3, SaturatedFat 47.8, Cholesterol 347, Sodium 4920.8, Carbohydrate 26.9, Fiber 1.3, Sugar 19.4, Protein 97.8

Tips:

  • Always choose a high-quality cut of steak for the best flavor and texture.
  • Use a flavorful marinade to enhance the steak's natural taste. A good marinade should contain a balance of acids, oils, and herbs or spices.
  • Marinate the steak for at least 30 minutes, or up to 24 hours. The longer you marinate the steak, the more flavor it will absorb.
  • Before cooking, remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels. This will help the steak to brown properly.
  • Cook the steak over high heat to quickly sear the outside and create a flavorful crust. Then, reduce the heat and cook the steak to your desired doneness.
  • Let the steak rest for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful bite.

Conclusion:

A great steak marinade can take your steak from ordinary to extraordinary. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a marinade that will infuse your steak with flavor and make it the star of your next meal. Whether you're grilling, pan-searing, or roasting your steak, a good marinade will help you achieve perfect results every time.
