This was a wonderful marinade. I used it with flank steaks, and marinated them overnight. They turned out so tender and juicy. I wouldn't use dried ginger...go for fresh, because I think it would really change the recipe.

A great marinade. I found four good sized round steaks for $4.00 and change and with a $2.00 off coupon--prepared four great steaks for just over $2.00! And it was all because I marinaded the meat for five hours. I was generous with the hole punching, and that must have made a difference. Granted, the cheaper cut of steak meant the chewing was a bit tougher, but with a good marinade such as this one--you are turning a poor cut of meat into a better than average one. Served the steaks with "Stir Fried Asparagus" from this website, which was also fantastic.

Not our favorite marinade for steaks, but will try again replacing the syrup with brown sugar.

I thought the taste was just okay. It was not bad but I have had better. In fairness, my husband thought it was very good.

Very very good marinate. My family loves the steaks. The second time I used this on Korean cut ribs and my daughter absolutely went crazy over the ribs.

great steak marinade- i left it in the fridge for 2 days- and it ended up tasting great. almost like a chinese marinade that my mom used growing up- i used mirin (rice wine) instead of the beer, and since i didnt have syrup- i substituted honey instead. will definitely try again

I loved this! One thing - remember to add the beer AFTER mixing the other ingredients! I threw everything into a shaker...well, you can guess what happened! But, I marinated the whole day and grilled in the evening - the flavor was unbeatable! Good job!

This recipe is Great ! My husband and I have tried this 4 times now - He actually requested it yesterday, definately a keeper. We don't usually marinade rib eye steaks because they are so tender anyway - but this is a nice change. Excellent Flavor !! And Oh Sooo Tender ! UPDATE - we never use to marinate ribeyes but we use this all the time now - the flavor is so good and it is so tender / just cooking steaks with seasoning just isn't the same. Thank you for sharing this recipe. Awesome !!!

I liked this better than my husband and would have given it a 4* rating but nothing more. The flavor really didn't stand out after the first few bites.

I used this to marinate t-bone steaks and let them marinate for about 24 hrs. It was good but the flavor was pretty overwhelming - don't think I'll make this marinade again. Sorry.

This was great and it really helped to tenderize the ribeye (I only marinated it for about an hour). The hot sauce helps to add just the right amount of kick. The ginger (I used the pureed ginger found in jars near garlic in produce section) and sesame oil really give an authentic Asian taste.

BEST steak recipe EVER!! I didn't have access to a grill the first time so I just used a pan, the taste was great but when I used a charcoal grill the next time, it was even better!! Thank you William!

If I could give it 10 stars, I would. Wonderful marinade...really brings out the flavor of the rib eyes. I grilled mine until med/rare...nobody asked for steak sauce or catsup!!!

Wow, fabulous flavor and got high marks from my guests! I didn't have all the fresh ingredients handy so I substituted red hot pepper flakes for the hot sauce, ground ginger for fresh ginger and added a teaspoon of horseradish. I marinated the meat overnight and boiled the leftover marinade for a sauce. Definitely restaurant quality.

This marinade was AWESOME! I didn't have real maple syrup or mustard powder, so I used the *fake* maple syrup (generic brand at that) and prepared mustard and it was still wonderful. I let our strip steaks marinate for about 6 hours and they were SO tender and juicy and flavorful. . .even after being cooked on the Foreman Grill! I highly recommend this marinade and will be using it often. Thanks for the recipe! :-)
