There are two types of people. Those that insist steak only needs a little salt and pepper before cooking and those that marinate their steaks. We are #TeamMarinate at our house. We always marinate our steaks before cooking. This Melt in Your Mouth Steak Marinade is a favorite. OMG! The flavors are fantastic and they steaks really do melt in your mouth.
How to Make Melt in Your Mouth Steak Marinade
This marinade is very easy to make. Combine olive oil, soy sauce, A1 Steak sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, rosemary, Montreal Steak seasoning, minced onion, and black pepper. Pour the marinade over the steaks and let them hang out in the refrigerator until you are ready to cook them. I usually let them marinate overnight for maximum flavor. If you don’t have that long, just let them marinate as long as you can.
You can cook the steaks inside in the skillet or outside on the grill. Either way, they will taste fantastic. If you are cooking them inside, I usually pan sear the steaks on both sides and then pop them in the oven at 425ºF for a few minutes until they are done. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature.

i’ve been using this recipe for a couple years now
I marinate my London broil in it and use it for my steaks. I will double and triple the quantity now that it’s summertime and store it in a container.
I can never make steak taste good on the grill. I bought 6 New York strip steaks that were huge, made the marinade exactly as the recipe says to, and it was a huge hit! My oldest son and husband are very picky and they loved it!! Thank you for sharing, this recipe is the only one I will use now! Oh, I also marinaded my steaks about 18 hours and they were so perfect!
This is a great marinade. I made it but only a quarter amount as just had one large steak to do for two. Used my Penzy Chicago steak seasoning, as what I had, and didnt add but a .5 teaspoon oil. Had a New York strip, over an inch thick, did at 400 in my air fryer..6 minutes each side for a medium rare. Would use this marinade again.
Hi! I haven’t made this recipe yet but as soon as i land myself back the store tomorrow i will be! My question is . Can you make a mixture of this and store in a container maybe doubling or tripling the recipe? Like instead of making it for one time of steaks can you make it and store in the fridge like you would a bottle of ketchup. Would it keep alright for a while or is it best to only make the day before for your steaks that next day? Have never made stuff like this before so please don’t think I’m stupid for asking this question. I’ve seen where others criticize for asking questions but that’s the only way you learn! Thank you! It sounds so good!
Yes – you can make the marinade ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator.
I don’t live in the USA so some of your ‘Ingredients’ mean absolutely nothing to me!
What are “A.1. Original Sauce” and “Montreal Steak Seasoning” and what can I use, in the UK, in p[lace of them?
I don’t live in the UK, so it is hard for me to help you. I suggest googling for a substitution. I’m sure someone has had the same issue.
@ John. In the United Kingdom, “A.1. Original Sauce”=”HP Sauce” while “Montreal Steak Seasoning”=”Sainsbury’s Steak Seasoning”
My steaks were awesome!!! Definitely will make them like this from now on. 🤗🤗🤗
Can this marinade be made a day ahead and kept in the fridge ?
yes
Do you let your steaks come to room temp before cooking, or does it really matter?
I take the steaks out a few minutes before cooking. Maybe 10 minutes or so while I’m prepping everything. It honestly doesn’t matter if the steaks are cold or room temperature.
Can not wait to make this. I do not have a meat thermometer, so baking at 425 degrees how long should I bake them for med rare and med well??? And are they covered with aluminum foil while baking.
This recipe is on POINT! Best steak marinade I’ve ever tasted. I did “tweak” the recipe a little — added 1 tbsp red wine vinegar and 1/4 cup a1 steak sauce. Marinated for 4 hours. DELICIOUS!
