Bourbon Street Rib-Eye Steak image

After eating this style of steak in a restaurant a few times, I worked on making my own marinade. The results are tender and do not have an overbearing bourbon taste. This marinade is very different from the only other one I have seen on this site.

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup water
⅔ cup bourbon whiskey
½ cup soy sauce
¼ cup packed brown sugar
3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
2 tablespoons lemon juice
4 (6 ounce) beef rib-eye steaks

Steps:

  • Whisk together the water, bourbon whiskey, soy sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice in a bowl, and pour into a plastic zipper bag. Add the rib-eye steaks, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 8 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  • Remove the rib-eye steaks from the marinade, and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade. Grill the steaks on high, 1 to 2 minutes per side, to sear the meat. Move the steaks to a cooler part of the grill and cook for an additional 2 to 3 minutes per side, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality whiskey for the marinade. A smoky or peaty whiskey will add more flavor to the meat.
  • Don't marinate the meat for too long. Over-marinating can make the meat tough.
  • Make sure the meat is completely coated in the marinade.
  • If you're using a grill, cook the meat over medium heat. This will help to prevent the marinade from burning.
  • Let the meat rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help to keep the juices in the meat.

Conclusion:

A whiskey marinade is a great way to add flavor and tenderness to your meat. It's easy to make and can be used with a variety of meats, including chicken, pork, and steak. Experiment with different types of whiskey to find the flavor that you like best. With a little planning, you can create a delicious and memorable meal with a whiskey marinade.
