BBQ Flank Steak

Ingredients

Marinade Ingredients

• 1/3 cup olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 2 Tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1/3 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  Other Ingredients
• 2 pounds flank steak

1. Combine the marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Place steak in the bowl and turn so that it is completely coated with the marinade. Chill and marinate for at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
2. Prepare your grill for high, direct heat with one part of the grill for lower, indirect heat.
3. Remove the steak from the marinade, place steak on the hot side of the grill. Grill for a minute or two on each side to get a good sear, then move the steak to the cooler side of the grill, cover and cook a few minutes more until done to your liking.
4. When the steak has cooked to your preferred level of doneness, remove from the grill and place on a cutting board. Cover with aluminum foil to hold in the heat while the steak rests for 10 to 15 minutes.
