Summer Steak Marinade



Back in the day, before newspapers died, we got the Arizona Republic. And can you guess what my favorite section was? Food, of course!! And ok, along with the celebrity gossip page that I would read almost daily. It just made me feel super good about my life, reading about all those shallow, fickle, moral-less people. I know, bad way to get your self esteem. But it worked for me. Anyway, one day they had this steak marinade in there, and it was so simple I decided to try it. Wow, sometimes the simplest things are really the best!! This has become a family favorite.


Summer Steak Marinade:
1/3 cup Honey, plus more for rubbing on meat
1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup Soy Sauce
4 steaks (about 6 ounces each, rib-eye, New York strip or tenderloin work best, but any grillable steak will do), lightly peppered

Combine soy sauce, 1/3 cup honey and Worcestershire in a microwave safe bowl. Microwave for 20-30 seconds, until honey stirs easily. Stir sauce mixture. Pour over steaks in a shallow bowl. Puncture the steaks with a fork to help the sauce penetrate. Marinate steaks up to 30 minutes, turning them every 5 to 7 minutes.
Drain the steaks. Rub more honey on the meat.
Place on a hot grill to sear, then reduce heat and grill to desired doneness.
