Kyobanim, RL;

I will try your suggestions on the marinade with a couple of Rib-eyes this afternoon, and will report back my unbiased findings.

I realize that many here on Professional Soldiers.Com have been eagerly awaiting my findings in regards to marinating time with steaks. Through careful analysis I have to agree with the two professionals in question on this thread. The steaks were outstanding and I thank both of you for your advice.

Hope you all had a good weekend.

Doc

Marinating wild boar spareribs in this marinade overnight. Then into the crackpot while I'm at work tomorrow. Finish on the grill perhaps?

The wife joined us up to one of those discount warehouse stores. At first I was like sure whatever. Until she brought home these steaks. NY strips at least 2" thick. A four pack of them for $35. They were delicious and super tender.

There used to be a restaurant in Chapel Hill called Four Thieves, owned by Paul Geber I believe. He made the very best London broil ever or since. This was in the late seventies early eighties. I think he used flank steak. I've never had its equal since.

Not a huge fan of marinated meats. Only because I'm a carnivore and the marinades dilute the taste of the animal blood.......

About the only thing I enjoy is Steak au Poivre, and if you love steak, especially NY Strip you need to try Steak au Poivre....... If you're in Phoenix, you get the steaks and I'll do the Steak au Poivre......

And if the recipe doesn't have NY Strip steaks, black peppercorns, shallots, butter, olive oil, cognac, beef/veal demiglace, and heavy cream, it's not Steak au Poivre.......

Emeril lagasse version

Stumbled across this recipe doing my normal hunting and gathering routine on the net. Was a HUGE hit, easily one of my favorites. After hitting this thread I think I will rest your recipes as well, but let me offer this for you to try.

Very simple, I let mine marinate over night. The Creole Seasoning mix I made lasted for 3 steaks. Enjoy!

Can't find my original recipe but this is very close. You're going to have to make this a handful of times to get it perfect. I make it maybe 25 times, 55 times?
