Used this recipe to inaugurate our new gas grill! Thanks so much--it was delicious. Our flat iron steak was a big larger (2 lbs.) so we had to cook it a little longer to get to medium-rare but the marinade amount was still plenty. It was so nice to hear DH oohing and ahhing through dinner!

Instead of salt and black pepper, added a generous teaspoon of Montreal Steak Seasoning. Turned out well. Also, doubled garlic to four cloves.

I first placed it on a hot grill to sear both sides. Then cooked in convection oven 200F for 10 minutes. Tender, juicy & medium rare. Very pleased with results!

I follow this recipe exactly and I am a very good cook. This recipe is very bland and I would never make it again. How these people that gave it five stars I have no clue. It's ashame that I wasted such a nice piece of meat on this recipe.
