Ideas for a quick easy steak marinade?? T-bone porterhouse,, ribeye?


Answers:
I sometimes use just plain Italian dressing to marinate my steaks. You could also add some red wine to the mix.

You listed some pretty good cuts of steak there. Those ususally benefit from simple seasonings like salt and pepper. I would hate to see you spoil a very tasty steak like those with a marinade.

Keep it simple and let the good beef flavor come through with just simple salt and pepper.

For these kinds of steak no marinade is needed. Salt , pepper and cook.

Whatever you do, it will tenderize your steak and make it grill beautifully, and taste great too. However, the steaks you mentioned are wonderful on their own and usually don't require any extra ingredients. Especially if they are grilled to perfection. I usually save the marinades for sirloin or chicken breasts.

Italian dressing is a quick and tasty thing to marinade grilled foods in. It's great on steaks, chicken, even vegetables like mushrooms, peppers, onions, zucchini and squash. Just pour enough dressing into a gallon sized zip-lock bag and add your steak/vegetables and shake well. When you pull them out to put on the grill, don't leave too much dressing on the food, let it drip before putting on the grill.

You can also buy tons of different marinades like teriyaki or lemon garlic, but they are also easy to make at home. Just mix some olive oil, lemon juice, garlic or garlic salt, and pepper. You can throw in just about any seasoning you like instead of lemon/garlic. Try chili powder and cilantro and lime.

3 tbsp of olive oil,
2 tbsp of balsamic Vinegar
1 tbsp, worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce.
1/2 tsp of oinion powder
2 cloves of garlic minced, or 1/2 teaspoon of garlic powder
1/2 tsp, black pepper
1 tbsp of mustard (any you like)
salt to taste. This marinade can be used on any steak and is delicious. I prefer Porterhouse.

You only need to marinade for a short period of time because those cuts are great cuts and dont need to over marinade. Just use it as a basting fluid even.

I would do a dry rub and not a marinade. I just use essence. salt pepper and garlic powder. If you want it a little spicy add some cayenne. I also add a little olive oil to help blend it . That's it . If you are not grilling i recommend the Broiler .

A-1, wischester sauce, montreal steak seasoning melted butter

Italian salad dressing
soy sauce & garlic
teriyaki sauce & fresh grated ginger

Good cuts of steak, like porterhouse, ribeye and tenderloin (filet mignon) really don't need a marinade. They're tender enough on their own, and their flavors can be augmented by very simple seasonings, like salt and pepper, or a favorite dry rub. Besides, marinades have a tendency to draw moisture out of meats; a nice, lean ribeye steak will actually become MORE tough if you marinate it.

Another good idea---especially for very lean cuts, but it will work with any steak---is to thoroughly rub the steak (both sides) with bleu cheese. Just use your fingers to really smear it on there, then season and grill as usual.
