This made a nicely flavored flank steak. Based on the other review, I did toss in a couple of garlic cloves and I didn't have the Meyer lemons so used the lemon/orange juice combination. This was grilled for 4 minutes on each side and was cooked rare. The meat was tender. This was served with recipe #9716 and a tomato salad. Made for the Aussie Swap.
