Balsamic Steaks

Submitted by TasteTester

"I received a bottle of "Newman's Own" organic balsamic vinegar for Christmas this year. I was looking for some recipes to try it with and came across this old newspaper clipping. I made the steak last night and it was really good! (Although the recipe calls for cooking on the stove, we chose to grill ours.)"

I thought this was pretty good if a little sweet (salt fixed that for me) but the boyfriend kinda shrugged & said 'eh'. Not bad but we prefer spicier dry rubs for rib eye.
