1. Italian dressing works well!

Along w/ some shrimp marinated in beer...:-)

10. Good old Italian dressing works

every time. Stopped making my own dressing. I like Wishbone.

2. Teriyaki

1 cup soy sauce, 4 sliced greenonions/chives, tsp ginger (natural is better--sliced, but powdew will do in a pinch), tblsp brown sugar.

The Store bought stuff is not so great--too thick.

3. My current favorite

is a dry rub of McCormick grillmate Montreal Steak seasoning. This works best with a nice juicy rib steak. With a London Broil or something I usually mix some soy sauce and a little red wine vinegar and the above seasoning.

4. Take a flank steak

And marinate it in:

1) 1 cup Soy Sauce
2) 1 cup Honey
3) 1 cup Olive Oil
4) 1 tbsp. Garlic (chopped)
5) 1/2 cup Green Onion (chopped)

(I usually halve the amounts because the steak we usually cook isn't that big)

Method :
1) Combine all ingredients and mix well with a wire
whisk.
2) Store and refrigerate.
3) Marinade the flank steak for two hours and also
brush the marinade on when grilling.

5. Well, first fly to Argentina...

6. Make sure it includes an acid-based liquid...

...such as wine, beer, vinegar or citrus juice. That acts as a natural tenderizer.

12. That gives me an idea...

How about orange + grapefruit juice steak? Mmm....

Maybe throw in some tangerine juice for the marinade. MMMMMMMmmm.......

8. Hi trumad

I use Lea & Perrins Worchestershire with black pepper and alot of fork holes to tenderize the meat more, so it's nice and tender with a good taste.

you're welcome :hi:

I can't find it around here, but I used to have it sent to me from Florida

11. I have had steaks marinated in that stuff before in Miami....

There use to be a place down in Hialeah called Lilas... It would cook a skirt stake and smother it with skinny french fries.... Fantastic.

13. battery acid

At least for the steaks I can afford

14. Do this

Juice of a lime, garlic, juice of an orange, your favorite hot sauce (tabasco as default) and a tablespoon of any kind of mustard, some worcstershire..leave it in there as long as possible..preferably over night...then when you cook it, give it about 5 less minutes than you normally would.

Promise you'll love it.

( I melt bleu cheese over it right before I take it off the grill)

15. A chef told me to use oyster sauce...the steak will melt in your mouth. n

16. Tuscan marinade (overnight! in the fridge of course)

olive oil, red wine, many peeled and crushed garlic cloves, sliced onions, and bay leaves.

Be sure to do both sides!
