This was, by far, the best marinade for just a plain ol' steak.

My family absolutely loves this marinade. My 10 year old daughter frequently requests steaks marinaded using this recipe. I usually double the recipe though and it completely covers 4 steaks in a 9 x 13 dish.

I too changed a few things, brown sugar instead of honey, balsamic vinegar, chopped onions and garlic cloves, half veg. oil, half olive oil. Omitted Sherry altogether. Marinated a large 7lb-8lb eye of round roast overnight and flipped it over in the morning. Let it stand on counter til room temp. so it would cook evenly. Braised it all over on top of the stove, then Cooked at 375 degree oven at 20 mins. per pound. Put some Oil and water and Onions quartered in roaster and let it cook. I did not think I was going to like the roast because of the "smell" not sure if it was the soya sauce or ginger or both but it was awfully strong. Anyway, cooked it like I said, and to my AMAZEMENT it was Moist and juicy, and probably one of the BEST roasts I've ever cooked. For a cheap cut of meat, It very well could have been a Rump or Sirloin tip!!!!! This was my first time marinating a Roast of Beef and would definately recommend it!!

My fiance loved this -- he would give it 5 stars! I tried to make it a little less sweet -- the honey made it sweeter than I expected (next time I'll use a little less). Didn't have sherry so used rice wine vinegar; added dash of worcestershire sauce, 2 extra garlic cloves, and a few dashes of Tabasco. The rib eye that marinated for 10 hours was delicious!

This is a great recipe. It gives such a rich taste to steak. I made the recipe as stated, scaled down for a single serve. I marindaded for a good 24 hours. There was enough marinade at the end to make a glaze, this was perfect over steamed brocoli and baked potatoes. I used fillet beef today, but will definitely try it again with my favourite scotch fillet.

My husband and I did not care for this - good thing we had steak sauce. I do not agree with the oil in this marinade because the out side burns fast - I had to turn the meat often so it would not get burnt. sorry we did not like the flavor of this at all -

This is a great and easy marinade. Anytime we bbq steaks, my husband always asks for "Doreen's Steak Marinade". My kids love it too.

I thought this was excellent (I dont give out 5 stars too easily!). I followed the recipe exactly, marinaded for 4 hours, and the steaks were delicious. I made it again and followed the recommendations of some on here and marinaded for 24 hours, but I felt the steaks had gone too sweet by that stage. I've since experimented with whiskey instead of sherry - it was fina also.

I always get rave reviews when I use this. I never measure anything and I always substitute Red Wine for the sherry.

We didn't really care for this marinade. It was edible, but it just didn't suit our taste.

I think it was the sherry that threw the taste off for me, added a sour sort of aftertaste...

I did not have sherry or fresh ginger, so I asked for advice from my friends on my cooking forum. Based on their recommendations, here are my substitutions: I used merlot (all I had besides zinfandel) but added 2 t of brown sugar; I used teriyaki instead of soy sauce, because teriyaki is sweeter--again trying to counteract the sourness of the merlot; I used 1 t of ground ginger, but as my friends said, it lacked the punch of fresh. The result was still an outstanding marinade, creating very flavorful and tender rib eyes and T-bones. I will purchase the correct ingredients for next time and try this on other cuts of beef as well. Excellent recipe, Doreen.

I marinated steak tips overnight and cooked them on the grill for diner the next day. They were a HUGE hit with the whole family. Great taste.
