Ingredients

  • 2 rib eye steaks
  • 1/4 cup bourbon
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Directions

  1. In a bowl, combine bourbon, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, dried thyme, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to dissolve the sugar.
  2. Place the rib eye steaks in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure the steaks are fully coated. Cover the dish and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour, or overnight for maximum flavor.
  3. Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Remove the steaks from the marinade, allowing any excess marinade to drip off.
  4. Brush the grill grates with vegetable oil to prevent sticking. Place the steaks on the grill and cook for about 4-6 minutes per side, or until desired doneness is reached. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F for medium-rare or 145°F for medium.
  5. Once cooked, transfer the steaks to a cutting board and let them rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicier steak.
  6. Slice the steak against the grain into 1/2-inch thick slices. Serve hot with your favorite side dishes.
  7. Enjoy!
