Maybe a bit too strong marinade

hkaplan2 - July 6, 2007 12:51:43 PM PST

Great steak does not need A-1 PLUS balsamic vinager dressing. Way too strong a flavor, particularly for a good rib eye steak.

Less is more. The very best steak houses go light on the marinande and seasonings. The key is proper grilling.

Something very similar?

I agree with a previous review .... a half cup of A-1 is too much. Instead, try a 1/4 cup and add 4-6 tablespoons of lemon juice. Reconstituted works just fine.

Then allow the steaks to marinade in this mixture for a period of at least 2 hrs. in the refrigerator prior to grilling, turning at least once.

A great steak is only turned once on the grill, and when it is, sprinkle on a liberal dose of the remaining marinade at that time and some coarse ground black pepper to taste.

Wonderful !

Easiest way to ruin a good steak?

os10867nu - April 7, 2008 01:38:54 PM PST

why start with Kraft, or course....

If you need to add this stuff to your steak, then you either didn\'t buy a very good steak, or don\'t really care for steak.

I like to use worcestershire instead of a1. and season to taste with seasoning salt

Only one change

I would use Worcestershire sauce in place of the dressing, it will be a nice complement to the A-1, Garlic and Oregano.

Aging is the key

In my opinion, marinades take flavor away from a good steak. Aging the meat prior to cooking is the key to a great steak. Dry aging is best to develop the flavor. I age steaks I buy at Costco in my fridge at home using dry bags. The steaks come out flavorful and with great texture. You have to have patience though aging takes 2 - 3 weeks, but the results are fantastic. If interested the dry bag site is drybagsteak.com
