Description

This ginger soy marinade makes rib-eye steaks even more tasty. Marinade ingredients include maple syrup, beer, garlic, dry mustard, and sesame oil.

Ingredients

1/2 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup real maple syrup
6 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon mustard powder
1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
1/2 cup beer
4 (10 ounce) beef rib-eye steaks

Directions

1 Combine soy sauce, maple syrup, garlic, ginger, mustard powder, sesame oil, and hot pepper sauce in a medium mixing bowl; mix well to blend. Add beer and stir lightly to mix.
2 Prepare steaks by scoring any fatty outside areas on steak with a knife (this prevents the steaks from curling when grilling). Place steaks in a casserole dish and pour marinade over. Using a fork, punch holes in steaks so that the marinade penetrates into the meat. Turn steaks over and repeat punching holes.
3 Cover with clear wrap or foil and let marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour to overnight.
4 Prepare and preheat a grill to high heat. Place steaks directly on the grill and sear one side for about 15 seconds. Turn steaks over and cook for about 5 minutes, then turn over and cook for another 5 minutes for medium-rare, depending on thickness. Test for doneness by cutting into the middle of the steak.
