Recipe given to me by my Mom, Sandy, from Cincinnati, Ohio."This is a great marinade for top round steak - serve with fresh steamed broccoli, some crusty bread and a starch and you'll be good to go. If you have any extra, you can make great steak sandwiches the next day."
- 1 1/2" to 2" thick top round steak - no bones
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 3 tbsp ketchup
- 1/2 cup fresh lemon or lemon juice
- 3-4 garlic cloves chopped
- 1/2 cup oil
- 1/4 tsp. pepper
Mix all ingredients together. Poke holes in round steak and pour marinade over top (do this in a glass dish not metal). Marinade for at least 6 hours (turning occasionally) but best to marinate over night.
Grill 7-8 minutes per side. Allow meat to rest before slicing. Slice in thin strips.
Tip: If you belong to Costco, they have great top round and you can get two large pieces for the same price as one at a local grocery store. Great and easy meal to serve if you have guests - the meat is very flavorful.
