Everybody Loves a Great steak!
For many, cooking a delicious steak can be a bit daunting.
“Don’t overdo it!” and “Cook it hot!” and time it right so you can “let it rest!”
It’s no wonder we hesitate at the thought of indulging in a spendy cut of beef.
This easy marinade will put your mind at ease
The easiest, most versatile steak marinade Ever!
Starting with a great steak is easy with beef from MurrayHill Farm. 100% Limousin (that’s the breed of cattle) beef is inherently lean, naturally more tender, and renowned for its luxurious flavour - no matter what the cut!
There’s a cut to fit every budget and this recipe will make even a Fast-fry steak taste like you’re eating at The Keg.
People say even our burgers taste like steak!
Easiest Steak Marinade
INGREDIENTS:
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/3 cup olive oil
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 Tbsp minced garlic
1 Tsp dry mustard powder
1/2 Tsp onion powder
Whisk all ingredients together and pour over steaks in a large ziplock baggie. Let sit for min 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
It’s as simple as that!
As usual, my recipes can be altered and improvised if that’s your thing. Feel free to add ginger in place of garlic, a touch of sesame oil, maybe even something sweet like pineapple juice and out the Worcestershire.
The sky is the limit with this one but I find usually Less Is More when it comes to marinade ingredients.
Let’s face it, you still want those amazing flavours of your beef to shine through!
Great Tips:
#1 Judge with a thermometer.
You can’t second guess the temperature or yourself..
125-130 Rare
130-135 Medium Rare
135-140 Medium
140-145 Medium Well
145-150 Why would you do this?!
#2 End with Butter
Whether you’re searing in a cast iron pan or on the BBQ, be sure to add a pad of butter at the very end of your cooking time. It will add a nutty sweetness and highlight the silky texture of your Limousin beef.
#3 Garnish
with Fresh Herbs, Scape Pesto, Buttered Mushrooms or Classic Chimichurri made with fresh parsley and garlic
