Kittencal's Marinade for Grilled Steak

I used this marinade on top sirloin steaks. I let them sit for 24 hours and then rinsed them and patted them dry. I was hoping for something that would soften the meat with a slight touch of a 'something' that works with the beef flavor but still lets the beef taste be the forefront. That's not this recipe. It smells garlicky, but it tastes like vinegar and soy. Not much beef taste. They were still eaten, but it was agreed that it wasn't what we wanted. (like a steakhouse marinade). I will stick with salt, pepper and a pat of butter. Thanks anyway.

I was really looking forward to this, but it was kind of disappointing. I did it exactly as written except I didn't have enough Dijon mustard. So I used yellow mustard for the remaining amount needed (about 1/2 tsp I think). I don't think the mustard was the problem tho. I think for me, the balsamic vinegar gave it too much of a sweet taste. I think next time I'll try omitting it or maybe try a different vinegar. It wasn't gross or any thing. It just wasn't very tasty to me, as the sweetness ruined the other good flavors that were going on. My fiance really enjoyed this dish, so I'm giving it four stars. I will be for sure trying this again, just a little differently. Thanks for sharing :)

I put this marinate in a ziplock bag with a sirloin steak and took it on a camping trip, so it ended up in there for about two days before it was cooked. Turned out great! I never ended up putting more salt on it. The salt already in the Worchestershire and soy sauces turned out to be enough. The marinade really complimented the flavor of the beef without overpowering it.
