<-- is going to eat a very scrumptious dinner tonight of the flank steak that has been plaguing <-- since <-- stopped eating meat :9 :9 :9
<-- should share the recipe
<-- will do so, as long as you promise not to mind if when you are all at our house that's what we feed you :D
<-- says here it is:
Flank Steak
1 1/2 lb. flank steak, sprinkled with thyme
1/3 c. soy sauce
1 bay leaf
1 oz. (1 jigger) rum
With a sharp knife, score both sides of flank steak in a criss-cross pattern lightly across the surface in a diagonal line, creating diamond shapes on the surface of both sides. Combine remaining ingredients for the marinade. Put flank steak in a large ziploc plastic bag and add marinade. Marinate all day in the refrigerator, turning bag every couple hours. Prepare grill. Steak can be rubbed with olive oil on both sides if you want. Grill for approximately 10 minutes to a side. Do NOT use marinade.
