Steak marinade advice?

Question

I have a London Broil that I am planning to marinate and cook for dinner tonight. Currently I have a mixture of olive oil, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, and minced garlic (from a jar). Do you have any advice on what to add to this or what to do instead?

NOTE: thank you for all the advice. i can't say i did what anybody told me to... i added some BBQ sauce, stabbed the steak with a fork and put it in the fridge to soak

Answer 1

You've got a great marindae there, I wouldn't touch it with anything except some fresh cracked black pepper for a little kick......And when you take the meat off the heat, remember to let it "rest" for about 8-10 minutes before slicing........Enjoy!!!

Answer 2

Sounds like you have all of the right ingredients just puncture some holes in the meat so that it will absorb into the meat and not just the surface.

I wouldn't add salt until after you sliced the meat, it tends to toughen the meat.

Answer 3

Add some cracked black pepper- and that's exactly what I use. If I'm short on time, I'll use Ken's Italian dressing as a substitute marinade.

Answer 4

add salt, pepper, a little wine. use white wine if you don't like the strong taste of wine. add the oil last otherwise it stops the marinade from penetrating.

Answer 5

i would have dumped in some red wine, black pepper and garlic myself, maybe a little olive oil too.

Answer 6

i would add some onions salt pepper beefy onion soup mix .
