Spicy Steak Marinade

Total Time: 10 mins Preparation Time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• 3/4 cup tabasco sauce
• 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 (10 ounce) can canned mushroom slices
• 1/2 cup brown sugar, packed
• 4 -6 garlic cloves, minced
• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
• 1/4 cup worcestershire sauce
• 1/4 cup red wine vinegar or 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon horseradish

Recipe

• 1 combine all ingredients (if not using right away, be sure to chill).
• 2 note: you can adjust many of the ingredients to taste, i.e. more or less garlic (always more for me), more or less tabasco, onion etc.
• 3 i like to mix the marinade in a large plastic freezer bag and then i add 4 boneless ny strips (the bag method works best with boneless steaks).
• 4 i let the steaks marinade (the longer the better) turning the bag over several times.
• 5 and to me, steaks should never be cooked more than medium, i personally am a rare to mid-rare person but for best flavor they should never be cooked more than medium.
• 6 lastly, once i remove the steaks i simmer the remaining marinade and serve it separately as a steak sauce.
