Scale
for the marinade:
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) of bourbon
- 2 tblsp of ketchup
- 1 tblsp (15 ml) olive oil
- 1 tblsp (15 ml) of soy sauce
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- several dashes of tabasco sauce
- salt and pepper
for the rest:
- 1 thick bone-in rib-eye
- 1 tblsp (15 ml) of olive oil
- 1 tsp of paprika
- a bit of salt and pepper
- chopped parsley
Instructions
- In a medium-sized bowl, combine the bourbon, ketchup, olive oil, soy sauce, minced garlic, Tabasco sauce, salt, and pepper to create the marinade.
- Pour the marinade into a resealable plastic bag and add the rib-eye steak. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible, and massage the marinade into the steak until well coated.
- Place the sealed bag on a plate and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for more intense flavor.
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove the steak from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Discard the marinade.
- Grill the steak for about 5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).
- Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Notes
- For a more intense flavor, marinate the steak overnight.
- Serve with a side of grilled vegetables or a fresh salad.
- This dish pairs well with a glass of bourbon or a mint julep.
- Ensure your grill is hot before placing the steak on it to achieve a good sear.
