Marinated Grass Fed Beef Steaks

    Marinated Grass Fed Beef Steaks
    From The Prairie Table Cookbook

    Hands-on time: 5 minutes
    Marinate time: 8 -24 hours
    Grill time: 10 minutes
    Resting time: 10 minutes

    Serves 2

    Ingredients:
    2 rib eye steaks (I actually couldn’t find any so I used T-bones)
    Marinade:
    ½ cup soy sauce
    ½ cup sliced green onions
    ¼ cup brown sugar
    2 large garlic cloves, minced
    ¼ tsp ground ginger
    ¼ tsp ground black pepper

    Directions:
    1. Whisk all marinade ingredients together in a zip lock baggie, add the steaks and make sure they’re coated on both sides. Refrigerate for 8-24 hours, flip the steaks over a couple of times to make sure the marinade works its magic evenly.

    2. Before grilling, allow the steaks to come to room temperature (at least 30 minutes).

    3. Grill steaks 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. Remove from the grill and lightly cover with foil for 10 minutes. This allows the meat to relax and become more tender.

    Grass fed beef is leaner, denser and has a very different texture.
