I dabble with the idea of becoming a vegetarian, and then we have this, and I am so torn. We love our flank steak and this marinade is so delicious. I think this is our favorite BBQ meat dish. It's a wonderful way to start a camping trip too.
Before we bought our trailer, we did a lot of tent camping. It's always so much work that first day to set up camp that I dread making dinner. The flank steak makes my day so much easier because I get it started in the morning, double bag it, pop it into the cooler and once camp is ready to go...I turn the heat up and grill! Very easy!
I usually buy our flank steak at Sam's or Costco. I find the price to be much better. Almost like your getting two for one. My family of 5 will eat 2 flanks. I try to fill them up with other side dishes, but they want their MEAT! We never have leftovers. ENJOY
I am going to provide two recipes: the original and a Gluten/MSG-free version.
Recipe: Flank Steak Marinade (THE ORIGINAL)
1.5 pounds of Flank Steak
1 can of Beef Broth
2 bunches of Green Onion
2 cloves of Garlic, minced
1/2 cup packed Brown Sugar
1/3 cup of Soy Sauce
You want to cut your meat across the grain into strips. My strips are usually 1 inch thick and wide.
In a large storage bag or bowl, combine all ingredients. Marinade in the refrigerator for at last 4 hours.
Remove the bag, grab some tongs and a bowl. Make sure you spray your grill with oil so that the meat will not stick. Grill the flank steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side. We don't like ours well done. There should be some pink in the middle.
Gluten/ MSG Free Marinade Recipe
I used this recipe to marinate 3 pounds of Flank Steak. Adjust according to how much meat you have.
1/4 Liquid Amino Acids (this is a soy-based flavoring)
2 cups of water
3/4 cups of Tamari Soy Sauce (gluten-free)
1 T. onion powder or 2 bunches of green onion
2 tsp. garlic powder or 2 cloves of minced garlic
1 cup of brown sugar

I remember when flank steak was a bargain cut. These days it's just as expensive as other steaks (at least here in No. California.)
ReplyDeleteI also will use skirt steak. It depends on which one is cheaper at the time I buy it. Thanks for leaving a comment!
