World's Best Grilled Steak

Chef Dee's Note:

Tender juicy steaks on the grill are one of life's pleasures. This is the best marinade we have ever come across. It is the perfect blend of flavors and it leaves the meat tender without being overpowering. Note: I'm not sure of the origins of this recipe, I don't see a duplicate. Will post a picture.

REALLY GOOD!!! We used sirloins, that ended up tasting like restaurant quality steaks. My kid ate almost all of hers, but did say it was a little spicy. Will make again.

I usually don't marinade steaks unless it's a tough cut like London Broil or Flank steak. But this marinade was awesome. I made it for Father's Day and my family loved it. I didn't have Oregano on hand but it wasn't missed. Can't wait to use it with a thicker cut meat like a sirloin roast!

Overall, a pretty good recipe, but not what I was looking for. I wanted a steak recipe that is a standout; something I'd find on Gordon Ramsey's Master Chef or Hell's Kitchen. The soy sauce flavor dominated this recipe and made the meat too salty. To improve the recipe, I'd use low sodium soy sauce, and less of it. I'm not sure how to tone-down the soy taste, so the search continues for a better recipe. Also, to keep the recipe from being too spicy, I backed off the pepper by one fourth to make it less spicy for my wife.
