I'm trying something different (for me). I chucked in the food processor 4 cloves of garlic, a quatrer of a red onion, some peppercorns and a bit of oil oil (EVOO) and made a puree which I rubbed all over my T-Bone steak. The peppercorns didn't get cracked as I expected them to, but what the hell. Letting it sit for 4 hrs on the steak. Should add a nice flavour for supper tonight. Baked spud, t-bone, corn, grilled asparagus and a t- bone...does it get any better?
Oh and fresh strawberries cut up into strongly vanilla flavoured whipped cream for dessert.

I've tried similar marinades on flank steak but the taste after grilling was as if the marinade really didn't impart much flavor what-so-ever. Not sure if I didn't let it sit long enough (6-8 hours) or what - I usually just stick with a Soy Sauce based marinade (Dale's works wonders). For T- Bones and the like it's usually just salt n' pepper...

I was kind of wondering about the marinade as well: Don't you want to cook the steak at high heat to sear it? And don't EVOO and garlic respond poorly to high heat?
I admit that I haven't TRIED cooking a steak with the marinade described, so it could have come out magnificently. But if it was me and I wanted those flavors, I would have used "regular" olive oil in the marinade and pushed garlic slices into slits in the meat. That way the garlic is somewhat protected from scorching and turning bitter, and it seems like the garlic flavor would permeate the meat better (cf. Chicago-style Italian beef). Or I would have roasted the garlic separately, mashed it with EVOO, and brushed it on the steak after it was cooked.

As I said... it was new to me. There was some flavour added to the steak , but not as much as sprinkling with garlic powder 5 minutes prior to grilling. All in all the meal tasted good... 4 out 5 stars. It gets 1 of those stars because I learnt something.

Imperiial Margarine's ad was the "Fit for a king" theme.
"It's not nice to fool mother nature" was Chiffon margarine: "If you think it's butter and it's not...it's Chiffon"
I was 6-8 years old and even I remember the Chiffon commercials.
