The BEST Steak Marinade

Step 1

Combine all ingredients in a large Pyrex measuring cup or mixing bowl and whisk together.

Step 2

Place steak in a large, ziploc bag and pour marinade over the top. Close securely.

Step 3

Marinate for at least 4 hours and up to 24 hours. (A bare minimum of an hour.)

Step 4

Preheat grill to medium high heat and lightly oil the grates.

Step 5

Remove the steak from the marinade and pat dry to remove excess marinade and to prevent flare-ups on the grill.

Step 6

Grill steak to desired doneness.

Step 7

Remove steaks from grill and tent with foil. Let rest for at least 5 minutes before serving.

Step 8

Cream softened butter with a spoon or mixer just until smooth. Stir in garlic and chopped herbs until combined.

Step 9

Spoon butter mixture onto a square or parchment paper, plastic wrap or wax paper and shape into a log (about 6 inches long). Pull the paper or plastic wrap tightly around it and roll up, twisting the ends tightly.

Step 10

Chill in the refrigerator until the butter is solid again, about 2 to 3 hours. Slice and serve on bread, steak, potatoes, shrimp whatever you want!
