1. Make the Marinade
- In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire, vinegar, Dijon mustard, and brown sugar.
- Stir in garlic, lemon juice, and all spices until well combined.
2. Marinate the Steak
- Place steaks in a large resealable bag or glass dish.
- Pour marinade over, making sure steaks are fully coated.
- Seal and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (overnight is best).
3. Cook to Perfection
- Remove steaks from marinade and let sit at room temperature for 20 minutes.
- Grill, pan-sear, or broil to desired doneness.
- Rest for 5 minutes before slicing to lock in juices.
Tips for the Juiciest Steak
- Don’t skip resting the steak — it makes all the difference.
- Use this marinade on chicken or pork too — it works wonders.
- For an extra crust, pat steaks dry before searing, then baste with melted butter.
- Always slice against the grain for maximum tenderness.
Serving Ideas
- Pair with roasted potatoes and grilled vegetables.
- Slice thinly for steak salads or wraps.
- Serve with garlic butter or chimichurri for extra indulgence.
