This was my first marinade I ever did from scratch. I did this for my birthday party. I got huge complements. People were saying this is the best stake they ever tasted.

I don't know if it's the best in existence, but despite the rather unorthodox herbs, it really is very good. We had this on t-bones and it was very tasty, no need for steak sauce. Thanks for sharing your recipe!

My husband and I just didn't enjoy this. I followed the recipe but found it to be REALLY acidic. The flavor was really intence and reminded me of Spoiled red wine, and the steaks weren't overly tender... I won't make this again. :(

Used this on the first grill of the season and it was a spectacular meal! The recipe lives up to its name.

Definitely best marinade I've ever tried. I whisked ingredients together and only marinated for about 4 hours in fridge. Results were amazing BBQ'd sirloin steaks!

I made this the first time for Mother's Day and my family really liked it. I had only been able to let it marinade for that day and I used whole beef tenderloin. At first I thought it was ok but found myself wanting more later in the evening and had to make it again. This time I used whole beef tenderloin again and I was able to let it marinade for 2 days. I also used about 1/2 of the lemon juice and I used about 1/4 cup of balsamic vinegar. It is more of an acidic flavor and if you crust the meat up a little by having a nice hot grill, the crusty meat and marinade flavor dances on your tongue a lot longer. I also didn't find the need to blend the mixture. I haven't tried using fresh herbs yet especially because there' s so much flavor with the dried, plus I also used a tablespoon of dried oregano too. I enjoyed this and will again and again.

Tasty, juicy and tender. Good for less expensive cuts. The first four ingredients are common to many marinades and are great for tenderizing. Most people would not marinate more expensive aged steaks but if you do, don't leave them in too long or they will get mushy.
