Ingredients
Scale
Marinade Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
- ¼ cup soy sauce
- ½ cup hot sauce
- 3 Tbsp brown sugar
- 2 Tbsp beef bouillon granules
- 2 Tbsp Montreal steak seasoning
- 3 Tbsp minced garlic
- 1 Tbsp dried minced onion
- 1 tsp pepper
Main Ingredient
- 4 steaks (your choice of cut)
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a medium bowl, whisk together olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, hot sauce, brown sugar, beef bouillon granules, Montreal steak seasoning, minced garlic, dried minced onion, and pepper until thoroughly combined.
- Marinate the Steaks: Place the steaks in a shallow dish or resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over them, ensuring they are fully coated. Refrigerate and marinate for at least a few hours, preferably overnight, to maximize flavor penetration.
- Remove and Discard Marinade: Take the steaks out of the marinade, allowing excess liquid to drip off, and discard the remaining marinade to avoid contamination.
- Cook the Steaks: Cook the steaks using your preferred method—grilling, pan-frying, or broiling—until they reach your desired doneness. Let the cooked steaks rest for a few minutes before serving to retain juices.
Notes
- Marinating overnight enhances the flavor and tenderness of the steak significantly.
- Discard any leftover marinade that has been in contact with raw meat to prevent foodborne illness.
- Adjust the hot sauce quantity to suit your preferred spice level.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure steaks are cooked to your preferred doneness.
- Letting steaks rest after cooking allows juices to redistribute for a juicier bite.
