Delicious Grilled Steak

Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"Plan ahead, for this recipe the steaks need to sit on the counter in the lime/honey mixture until room temperature which might take a couple of hours, do not marinade the steaks in the mixture overnight the acid from the lime will "cook" the beef. The marinade mixture is enough for up to 16-24 ounces in total weight for all beef, for more beef then double the recipe, also the ingredient amounts may be adjusted to taste."

4. Start a charcoal fire or preheat gas grill (the fire should not be really hot and the rack should be positioned no more than 4-inches away from heat source).

I saw this on Cooking.com and was gonna post it, but here it is! I usually use T-bones. I have used honey and the hoisin sauce, I think I prefer the hoisin. The ginger really kicks this up a notch. Thanks for posting.

I did the marinade only for my steak (so half of it). I loved it so much. I used honey. I loved the flavors of the lime and ginger, in fact everything. Thanks Kit. Made for 123 hit wonders.

I tripled the marinade for 6 steaks and it turned out great! I let the steaks marinate for about 6 hours. I have never used fresh ginger and LOVED it. The taste of this recipe is great; and it made the steaks so tender. Thanks, Kit!
