Marinade for Steak (Porterhouse, Sirloin or Any Beef Cuts)

"This is a simple marinade for any beef cuts, the longer you marinate the more the flavour will soak into the meat. My carnivores (Little Miss (DD) and Hubby) really enjoyed it. I didn't mind it on chicken either."

  1. I am gonna use this marinade tonight for dinner. I don’t have a BBQ grill tho. How can I make this steak on my stovetop &/or oven to have that grilled look & taste?

  1. Very good marinade.Made everything as written and instead of fresh gingeroot i used 1/8 tsp ginger powder.Thanks for the recipe and will do again.
     
  2. WOW! This is so easy and so good. I switched out the tarragon for basil. DH prefers sirloin and I prefer ribeye so I bought those. Delicious flavor and the carmelization was beautiful and tasty. DH ended up trying to steal part of my ribeye when he ran out of sirloin and has asked that I make it again this week. I served it with a salad and some steamed asparagus and it was a wonderful dinner.
     
  3. Love this marinade. Have used it not just on steaks (porterhouse, ribeye, flank, etc...) but also on chicken thighs and salmon. Great flavor.
     
  4. This was perfect for the first year anniversary dinner my husband and I shared. This marinade is very easy and quick to make. I doubled the marinade for 1.77 lbs of NY strip steak. The steaks were marinated overnight and turned over once. 30 minutes before dinner, I brought out the steaks to warm up to room temperature while a cast iron pan was heating up in the oven (oven set to broil) for 15 minutes. Then I seared each side of the steaks for about 2 minutes. After searing, I turned the oven setting to 500 degrees. The steaks cooked within 3 minutes (we prefer our steaks medium to well done). Let the steaks set for 5 minutes before slicing.
     
  5. This is one recipe to keep in the fav's , my wife and I are very fussy steak critics and this has tickled the taste buds and just as the recipe suggested thanks very much for sharing.

Tweaks

  1. I've tried variations of this 3 times now and it's always come out nicely. Used combinations of cinnamon, basil, sweet paprika, cumin instead of tarragon.
     
  2. This was one of the best steaks ever! It turned out so tender and juicy and we loved it. I subbed the tarragon with basil as I don't like the taste of tarragon, but that was the only change. <br/>Marinated for 2 hours. This is going in the "favourites" book. Thanks!

  4. Very good, and easy. My husband marinated about 1.5 lbs of steak....cut unknown...overnight, and it was very tender and flavorful. He used oregano instead of tarragon, but next time I think we'll stick to the tarragon. I also would like to increase the garlic because I really like it. Overall, the family voted to keep this recipe!
     
  5. I used rosemary instead of tarragon and it was great!
