Flank Steak Marinade
Always a hit in the Scully household and definitely the kids’ favorite. Thanks to Carol C. for this recipe.
Ingredients for the marinade
- 1/2 cup of white vinegar
- 1 cup soya sauce
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar or honey (I use honey but both are good)
- 1/2 cup pineapple juice
- 0ptional: 2-3 cloves garlic (I generally don’t use garlic because usually I serve the steak with a side of garlic spaghetti or garlic mashed potatoes)
Directions
- Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. There is enough here for 2 flank steaks.
- Marinade steaks overnight in the fridge. (for 2 days is even better!) I like putting the steaks in ziplock freezer bags. The marinade pretty much covers the steak so you don’t have to worry about turning too much. Two steaks and all the marinade will fit in one bag if you are planning on serving both steaks at one time. If you marinade the steaks separately, it’s great to marinade over a day or two and then cook one and stick the whole second bag in the freezer to pull out later in a pinch when you want something great on the BBQ for guests on short notice.
- For the flanks, BBQ on medium for 6-7 minutes a side (if steaks are at room temperature) for medium cooked steaks - a little less for more rare. Two flanks will feed 6 adults.
- Really easy stuff!!!
