They can brave the elements for a juicy Bourbon Steak!

This marinade is a little sweet from the honey and brown sugar. The soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce is salty and the bourbon infuses the steak with tons of flavor!

How do you make Bourbon Steak?
- Combine everything except the steak in a resealable plastic food storage bag. Mix to combine.
- Place steaks in bag, removing as much air as possible and seal.
- Marinade in the refrigerator for 2-8 hours. Flip the bag every few hours if possible.
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove steak from marinade and blot off the excess moisture with paper towel.
- Grill for 4-5 minutes on side one. Turn steaks over and continue to grill 3-5 minutes for medium-rare or to desired doneness.
- Remove from grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes so that juices are redistributed throughout the meat.
- To ensure the meat is tender, thinly slice against the grain. Serve and enjoy!
