Instructions
For the marinade/basting sauce:
- Combine all marinade ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl or saucepan (if you don’t have a microwave). Place the bowl in the microwave and cook for 2-3 minutes or until bubbling and the brown sugar has dissolved. If you’re doing this on the stovetop, bring the mixture to a boil and stir for 30 sections to dissolve the sugar. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
- Place the steak in a ziplock bag and add ½ cup of the cooled sauce. Seal the bag then massage the sauce into the meat. Refrigerate for at least an hour and up to 48 hours.
For grilling the steak:
- When ready to grill, heat the grill to high heat (500-600˚F). Clean the grates well.
- Remove the steak from the refrigerator and shake off any excess marinade. Discard marinade in the bag. Lightly salt and pepper the meat.
- Oil the grates of your grill then add the steak(s) and let it sit, undisturbed for 4-5 minutes or until the underside is nicely browned. Flip steaks to the opposite side and brush the cooked side with some of the sauce. Allow the second side to cook for 4-5 minutes then flip and brush with the sauce. Continue cooking, flipping and brushing until the steaks are nicely charred on the outside and the internal temperature is 140-145˚F, read with an instant thermometer.
- Allow the steak to sit for 10 minutes, undisturbed, then slice thinly against the grain (see Café Tips to learn what that means). If you made extra sauce (doubled the recipe), pass it at the table and allow guests to drizzle it over the sliced meat, as desired. Enjoy!
Notes
- See Café Tips above in the post for more detailed instructions and tips to ensure success.
- If you prefer to use Metric measurements there is a button in each of our recipes, right above the word “Instructions”. Just click that button to toggle to grams, milliliters, etc. If you ever come across one of our recipes that doesn’t have the Metric conversion (some of the older recipes may not), feel free to leave a comment and I will add it.
- This recipe will give you enough sauce to marinade the steak and extra for brushing on the meat while grilling. Sometimes I like to double the sauce so I have enough to drizzle over the sliced steak when serving.
