Easy Steak Marinade Recipe
While I love going to eat at a fancy steakhouse, I honestly prefer to eat steak that we cook at home. This BBQ Steak Marinade has been on repeat at our house. This marinade is super easy to make and is packed full of flavor! Barbecue sauce, Worcestershire sauce, steak sauce, Montreal steak seasoning, hot sauce, and minced garlic.
I know some people don’t believe in marinating steaks, but we always marinate our steaks before cooking. We love all the extra flavor a marinade adds to the meat. Give this a try the next time you are having a steak dinner. I promise you won’t be disappointed.
How to Make BBQ Steak Marinade
This marinade is super simple to make with pantry staples. In a bowl, whisk together barbecue sauce, Worcestershire sauce, steak sauce, Montreal steak seasoning, hot sauce, and minced garlic. Place the steaks in a gallon ziplock bag. Pour the marinade over the steaks and refrigerate for up to 24 hours, turning the steaks every few hours. Remove the steaks from the marinade and cook/grill until they reach your desired temperature.
