A flavorful and tender steak recipe marinated in a whiskey-based sauce, perfect for grilling or broiling.
Combine all marinade ingredients in a mixing bowl and whisk until well blended.
Ensure the sugar dissolves completely for an even flavor distribution.
Place the steak in a ziplock bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag, removing excess air, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
Marinating overnight enhances the flavor even more.
Remove the steak from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking to bring it to room temperature.
This step ensures even cooking.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steak from the marinade and pat it dry. Reserve the marinade for basting.
Drying the steak helps achieve a nice sear.
Place the steak on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, basting with the reserved marinade, until it reaches your desired doneness.
Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature for perfect doneness.
Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the steak juicier.
Slice the steak against the grain and serve with your favorite sides.
Slicing against the grain ensures tender bites.
