🥘 Ingredients

10 items

• 2 pieces Ribeye steak (1-inch thick)
• 60 ml Whiskey
• 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons Brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon Whole black peppercorns, freshly cracked
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 sprigs Fresh rosemary (optional, for garnish)

📝 Instructions

9 steps

1. In a medium bowl, combine the whiskey, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and olive oil. Whisk together until the sugar is fully dissolved.

2. Rub the steaks generously with salt on both sides and place them in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag.

3. Pour the whiskey marinade over the steaks, ensuring they are fully submerged. Cover the dish (or seal the bag) and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight, turning the steaks halfway through marinating.

4. Before grilling, remove the steaks from the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. This helps ensure even cooking.

5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400-450°F). Brush the grates with oil to prevent sticking.

6. Remove the steaks from the marinade and pat them dry with paper towels. Press the cracked black pepper into both sides of the steak for a flavorful crust.

7. Place the steaks on the hot grill and cook for approximately 4-6 minutes per side for medium-rare, or to your desired doneness. Use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature (125°F for rare, 135°F for medium-rare, 145°F for medium).

8. Once cooked, remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest on a cutting board, loosely covered with foil, for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute.

9. Garnish with fresh rosemary if desired, and serve immediately. Pair with grilled vegetables or mashed potatoes for a complete meal.
