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.

Absolutely delicious. I ate a whole steak and I normally not a steak person. I put the marinade into a ziplock bag with the steaks; threw them in the freezer. Today, I took them out and broil them and boy the meat is tender, flavorful, and so good. Thank you for sharing a great recipe.

    Made this for ZWTIII. This was really amazing. I'm a bit sceptical that dried herbs in marinades can be good, however the flavour was outstanding. I used dried thyme & marjoram, and marinated for about 7-8 hours. The smell as the steaks hit the cast iron pan was beautiful, garlic, ginger & herbs. The marinade caramalised slightly, giving a nice tang to the steaks. To boot, this was so simple - took under 5 minutes to prepare with no mess & no waste. Thanks floWer, will definitely be making this more often, especially in summer when we are back to BBQing.
