steaks on grill

Everybody needs a go-to marinade for steaks and other grillables!  Here’s one of our favorite recipes that works well as a people-pleasing set of flavors that boost already good cuts on your summer grill.

Summer Steak Marinade

  • 1/2 c. olive oil
  • 1/3 c. soy sauce
  • 1/3 c. freshly squeezed lemon juice (about 2-3 lemons, depending on size)
  • 1/4 c. Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 T. dried basil or mix of herbs of choice
  • 1 1/2 T. garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 T. dried parsley or 1/4 fresh, chopped finely
  • 1 t. ground white pepper

1. Combine all in a blender and mix on high speed until combined.

2. Marinate steak or other meat. Use a leak-free plastic bag or place in container and turn at least once during marination time. Marinate 2- 8 hours or overnight. Smaller or thinner cuts require less time. Discard leftover marinade or bring to a boil before reusing or serving alongside.

Switch it up: try with a mix of herbs or add a dash of hot sauce. Try using a blend of garlic and onion powder, or use a mix of black and white pepper.
