Best Steak Marinade Recipe: Quick & Easy!

Ingredients

• 2 (8 ounce) boneless rib-eye steaks
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 pinch garlic powder, or to taste
• 1 pinch Montreal steak seasoning, or to taste
• 0.33 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 0.33 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 0.33 cup soy sauce
• 0.33 cup balsamic vinegar
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 3 cloves garlic, chopped
• 1 dash liquid smoke flavoring

Instructions

1. Place your steaks in a shallow dish or container. Cut small slits every inch around the edges of the steak fat. Gently poke each steak on both sides several times with a fork to tenderize.
2. Evenly sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic powder, and Montreal steak seasoning over each steak. Gently pat the seasonings into the meat.
3. In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, and liquid smoke. Pour the marinade evenly over the steaks, ensuring they are well coated. Cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to 4 hours, flipping the steaks halfway through.
4. Prepare your outdoor grill by preheating it to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
5. Grill the steaks over medium-high heat until they reach your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, grill for approximately 8 to 10 minutes per side, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the steak registers 130 degrees F (54 degrees C). Let rest before serving.
