🔥 Instructions
1. Prep the Marinade:
• In a large bowl or ziplock bag, mix olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire, balsamic vinegar, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, chili flakes, herbs, and black pepper.
2. Marinate the Steaks:
• Add the steaks to the marinade and ensure they’re fully coated.
• Let them marinate for at least 1 hour (or up to 12 hours in the fridge).
3. Fire Up the Grill:
• Heat your charcoal grill until it’s nice and hot.
• Clean and oil the grates to prevent sticking.
4. Grill the Steaks:
• Remove the steaks from the marinade and let any excess drip off.
• Place them on the grill and sear for 4–5 minutes per side for medium-rare, turning only once.
• Use a meat thermometer: 130–135°F for medium-rare, 140°F for medium.
5. Rest and Serve:
• Let the steaks rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing or serving.
• Plate them up and serve with your favorite sides and sauces.
