Allan Benton's Fabulous Rib Eyes




Source of Recipe


internet


List of Ingredients




4 (1 1/2 inch) thick rib eye steaks (about 12 oz. each)

French Dressing Marinade:
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup canola oil
3 tablespoons bottled French dressing (yes, the orange kind)
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

Recipe



Place steaks in a baking pan large enough to hold them in a single layer.

Combine the marinade ingredients in a medium bowl, then pour the marinade over the steak. Cover with plastic wrap and leave a room temperature for 3-4 hours or in a refrigerator overnight.

Light a charcoal fire or preheat gas grill on high. Oil the grill's cooking surface. Let coals burn down to low fire or adjust your gas grill burners to low. Remove the steaks from pan and discard the marinade. Pat the steaks dry. Place the steaks on grill and cook 4-5 minutes per side for medium rare. Add a minute or two to each side for medium; subtract a minute or two from each side for rare.

Remove the steaks to a platter. Ten with aluminum foil and let rest for 5-10 minutes to settle the juices before serving.

Review by cllw: I made this and it is quite good. I didn't have French dressing, but I did have Russian and it was still good. I wasn't paying much attention when adding the dressing so I added probably twice as much as I should have ~ but that was okay as it coated the steak beautifully. I have several of those push through the meat tenderizers that pokes the steel pins through the meat and if you have one, be sure to use that so the marinade gets in the meat every which way it can.

Before grilling, I did sprinkle some Penzey's Chicago steak seasoning on it...we like a bit of kicked up flavor with steak seasoning and that just happens to be our favorite so on it went.

It was a great combination of flavor but I caution that IMO, it needs the longer marinating time than only 3 hours but that was my fault as this was a last minute decision to make it. This went great with a leafy green salad~Linda

(from BBQ Nation~ "I'm not going to tell you what's in the marinade until you taste the steak," he told me as we sat on his deck overlooking the Smoky Mountains. After one bite, I couldn't have cared less what he had marinated them in as long as he gave me the recipe.)
