4/1/2012I use this marinade for skirt steak and it is soooo good! I bbq it for just a couple of minutes and serve it cut into strips. No matter the quantity we seem to eat the whole thing.

12/6/2011I put the steaks (NY Strips) on the grill and went in the house for the 6 min before flipping. Went out to find major flame-up! Black. (Bourbon, brown sugar. I should've thought...) So sad. Not for long. OMG, these were the best!!! We recently went to an upscale steak house. My husband said last night, "I hate to say it but these "burnt" steaks are even better than the steak I had at that restaurant" (in between his constant, "o my god"s). I am not much of a beef eater but I wanted to lick my plate (the sauce is awesome!) and I can't wait to make these again.

9/4/2011This worked well as both the marinade for the steak and a nice sauce on the steak and mashed potatoes. Just the right amount of flavour stayed with the steak and the high sugar content gives a nice caramelization on the grill.
Someone has mentioned this was too salty, I happened to be a couple Tbsp short on the soy sauce and found this did not detract from the flavour and may have saved a tad on the salt.

8/27/2010A great simple marinade. I used brandy instead of whiskey, marinated beef short ribs for 9 hours and they were delicious. This one makes it into my favorites.

5/28/2010I hate to be the spoil sport but the sauce was a huge disappointment. The marinade imparted a nice flavor to the meat for sure. But when reduced, we found that the salt in the soy sauce concentrated far too much and made a harsh tasting condiment. Will probably not repeat this one.

3/1/2009This came together quickly & the cooking instructions were spot on for getting the perfect medium rare temp on the grill. The meat took on a great flavor. I agree with one of the other raters that maybe the sugar in the sauce could be reduced a little - but overall, a good go-to recipe for a weeknight.

11/2/2008My family LOVES this recipe and requests it when we all get together. The steak really picks up the flavor and the concentrated sauce is delicious over the top. This recipe is a winner at my house.

6/15/2008Amazing... we used NY Strips. My entire family devoured it.

6/3/2008Excellent grilled steak. The sauce is superb and the steak picks up a suprising amount of flavor from that short marinating time. A summer regular here.

5/17/2008It's very unusual for me to not love a recipe out of Fine Cooking, but this one was a little disappointing to me. I'm sure it's just personal preference, but my husband and I found the marinade just a little too sweet and cloying. If I did this one again, I'd probably cut back on the sugar at least a little.

1/7/2008This was great - really easy with excellent flavor. Without the sauce, the bourbon and sugar add to the carmelization of the crust; with the sauce you get a nice kick from the tobasco and the bourbon.
