I've got to disagree about not marinading great steak. Sure, a great steak will taste good even without putting anything on it. But a great marinade will also take a great steak and give it a bit of variety and make it more tender.

You need two things when marinading: an acid to tenderize the steak, and an oil to keep the steak from drying out. My favorites are lemon juice and olive oil (with a bit of mustard powder and soy sauce thrown in as well. The steak should be submerged in the marinade (about 2/3 oil, 1/3 lemon juice and then however much soy sauce you want).

It tastes EXCELLENT. I will tell you it is better than any non-marinaded steak I have ever had.

Season with garlic salt and parsley.

We know here that you need to let the meat rest right after cooking right?

Everyone except for Rocky does....

He believes that right after cooking you destroy the steak with A-1.

SINNER!

Spoken like a true democrat. ;-)

Actually that sounds fine and dandy for plenty of cuts, but not for a good steak. Never adulterate a great steak.
