Everyone has their own marinade for steaks and this is the one used in my kitchen, thanks to my husband Gene for coming up with his own special marinade. I am fortunate to have a good meat market in my neck of the woods where I can get excellent filet mignons. They also have a restaurant called Knight’s, which is well known.
Gene's Grilled Steak
- filet mignon (6-8 oz.) each (can also use rib eye, t-bone, NY strip, etc.)
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 2-3 tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
- 1/8 cup A-1 sauce
- couple dashes of Hickory Smoked Flavor Sauce
- couple dashes of Tabasco
- couple dashes of garlic juice
Combine above ingredients and marinate for a couple of hours prior to cooking. You can broil these in the oven or use your grill.
