I ended up marinating this for 2 days because we had an emergency change in dinner plans. I'm not sure if that was the reason but I thought it was a bit salty personally. DH loved it so I will definitely give it another shot.

Great marinade! My family loves it; however, I had to cut down on the soy sauce because we use an authentic one from Asian supermarkets (which is much saltier than the Americanized Kikkoman one). I had to cut the measurement of soy sauce to almost half as well as the olive oil to compensate. Also, instead of ground ginger, I grated fresh ginger into the marinade, and this made such a big difference in flavor. Still good, nonetheless. It's great with ribs, too!

There's a reason why the ratings are so high on this recipe. Delicious! totally does something totally differant to steak that i cant wait to try again. i did go with most peoples advise and not add in that extra serving of oil in the recipe; i cant imagine it being necessary. Anywho,everyone should try this at least once.

I know that I have said that other beef marinades were the best I have ever had....but hands down.....this one is really it!! I did not add any oil to the recipe and instead of Italian dressing, I used Newman's light sun dried tomato dressing. Marinated a skirt steak for 24 hours and grilled. I really think it was the tastiest steak I have ever had!!... I did rub the meat with the seasoning salt and montreal steak seasoning before I put it in the zip lock, then I added the marinade. Fabulous....family loved it!

This marinade made the steak amazing! I will tell you I did not use ANY of the oil it called for because I just could not bring myself to do it... there is some oil in the dressing so I just let that do the work and came out amazing! I will use this EVERY TIME I make steak! A++++++

This is a great marinade for a change. I typically don't like barbeque sauce with steaks, but the flavor was not overpowering at all. It added a subtle sweet/tangy flavor. We all enjoyed it!

Only marinated for 6 hours & used only about ¾ lb of ribeye instead of sirloin (scaled to 2 servings it was 1 ¼ lbs). Made with baked potatoes, steamed broccoli & garlic, & grilled brussel sprouts with pearl onions.

When I first saw this recipe, I thought it was like going through the pantry and throwing stuff together. I've made it twice now, and believe me,this marinade is wonderful! I used KC Masterpiece BBQ sauce, and went very light on the salt. "Su-poib"!

I LOVED THIS! I let it marinate for almost 24 hours. My husband only eats his steak well done, and 'well done' and 'tender' are two words that don't generally go together. However, he said it was very good, and very tender as far as well done steaks go. It was incredibly juicy & flavorful...no need for steak sauce. Served with Twice Baked Potatoes (also from this site) and a pasta salad. Great meal! Thanks!

This was great. Me and my husband inhaled the steak. I have made it several times. The recipe makes a lot of marinade so I usually boil the leftover marinade for a minute (to get rid of whatever bad stuff in there left from the steak) and then marinade lamb in it. It was the first time I made lamb and it was delicious. We love this recipe so much. This will be a keeper for sure.

I used a London broil for this and marinated it for 24 hrs in the fridge. Tossed it on the grill until done medium and served sliced 1/2 inch thick pieces... excellent! I used sweet baby rays bbq sauce in this recipie. I believe it to be one of the best bbq sauces. I will use this again!

I wanted and expected this to be so much more than what it was, especially since I was basing my expectations on all the positive reviews. But it didn't turn out that way. It was good, but not any more special than just a good seasoning rub or simpler marinade I've tried. This recipe has alot of ingredients for little reward. Sorry.
