1

Savor the Marinade Prep

In a bowl, combine 1/4 cup of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, and a sprinkle of black pepper. Mix well until the brown sugar dissolves into flavor-filled harmony.

Steak Meet Marinade

Place your beautiful steak (about 1 pound) in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade you just made all over it. Let it soak up the goodness for at least 30 minutes, but if you're feeling extra patient, let it marinate for up to 24 hours. Trust us, the longer, the better!

3

Get Grilling

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking. Take your marinated steak out of the bag and let any excess marinade drip off. Sprinkle both sides of the steak generously with salt and pepper, because we love a well-seasoned steak.

4

Sizzle and Sear

Place the steak on the grill and let it sizzle away. Grill for about 4-6 minutes on each side for that perfect medium-rare to medium doneness. If you prefer your steak more well-done, adjust the grilling time accordingly, but remember, medium-rare is where the flavor shines!

5

The Butter Bomb

While the steak rests for a few minutes, it's time to get that garlic butter ready. In a small saucepan, melt 4 tablespoons of butter over low heat. Once melted, add 2 minced garlic cloves and cook for a minute, until fragrant. We love the aroma!

6

Butter Me Up

Brush the mouthwatering garlic butter all over the steak, making sure to cover every inch with buttery goodness. Watch it melt and coat your steak with flavor, making it even more juicy and delicious. It's a butter explosion!

7

Slice, Serve, and Savor

Now comes the best part – slicing into that tender, perfectly marinated steak. Cut it against the grain into thin slices, and get ready to impress your taste buds. Serve it hot and savor every bite!
