A simple steak enlivened by a marinade with equal parts bourbon, brown sugar, soy sauce and mustard.Inspired by flamekissedsam’s “Bourbon Steak”
Ready in: 1 hour 25 mins

Ingredients

Serves: 1 steak

• 1/4 cup bourbon
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• Freshly ground black pepper to taste
• 1 flat iron steak (or more)

Preparation method

Prep: 10 mins | Cook: 15 mins | Extra time: 1 hour, marinating

1. Combine all ingredients except the steak in a large resealable plastic bag. Add steaks to bag, seal, and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 1 hour to marinate.
2. Heat your gas or charcoal grill to high (Here’s how to tell if it’s high: Hold your hand about four inches above the cooking surface. After 2 to 3 seconds, the heat will force you to pull your hand away.)
3. Oil the grill grate, using an oiled rag.
4. Remove the steak from marinade and place on the grill. Use these cooking times to cook your steak to medium: 2 to 3 minutes per side for a 1/2-inch thick steak, 4 to 6 minutes per side for a 1-inch thick steak, 6 to 9 minutes per side for a 1 1/2 to 2-inch thick steak.
5. Take the steak off the grill. Let it rest 2 to 3 minutes to allow the juices to reabsorb into the steak. Serve.Note

Recipe makes almost 1 cup of marinade, enough for 2 pounds of steak.
