These steak are perfect for a Father’s Day dinner!  This is the perfect give to give him along with a tie, a belt, some golf related something (because apparently all fathers golf?), or some electronic gadget that makes noise?  Yeah, I know, but that’s what I remember getting my father on his day.

 

But, along with all those “gifts” I was lucky enough to have a father that LOVED to cook.  Gee, wonder where I got it??  So, I had a barrage of kitchen related items I could easily purchase with my hard-earned stuffing envelope and filing in Mom’s office money.  I think we got him an apron and a chef’s hat once.  I know I bought some mini tools like a whisk or a grater or something funny like that.  Oh!  And grill tools.  You could always get Dad grill tools in our house.

I don’t know about yours, but our Dad was always the grill master of the house.  Well, master might be stretching it a little.  He was the only one in the house that could grill.  So, if we wanted to cook out for Father’s Day he would have to cook.  Which is sort of not the point of Father’s Day.

 

Fast forward a few years and I hope to be grilling Dad some steaks for Father’s day.  After all the ties and socks and the handmade pottery gifts (which he still has, mind you), Dad deserves something worthy of all the headaches I have put him through.  These steaks are just that gift.

I want to nothing but the best for my father.  So I always chose top quality steaks for my father.  I pick steaks that have nice marbling which keeps them moist when grilling.  The color should be bright red and the surface should look moist and not dry.  Make sure the steak feels tender to the touch.  Finally, but a thick steak that’s at least an inch and a half if not more.  Yes, they take longer to cook, but it’s worth it to keep the meat moist, delicious, and perfect for Dad.

 

I grilled these steaks, but you could totally cook them like these air fryer ribeye steaks.  I served mine with some smashed baby potatoes, but I think these air fryer roast potatoes would be a great side for these delicious steaks.

“Why did I marinate the strip steaks,” the hubs asked?  We have this restaurant we frequent that has what they call a “drunken ribeye.”  Since the hubs, Dad, and I love this particular steak at that restaurant, I’ve been dying to recreate it, but the steaks that we get just aren’t good enough.  It has delicious flavor with the marinade and amazing caramelization from being grilled.  It’s fabulous.  I knew I was going to try to make that steak with these steaks.  Little did I know what a HUGE difference an amazing steak can make in a recipe like this one.

 

FYI, this is the second batch of steaks.  The hubs didn’t want his marinated.  After having the filet of sirloin, he wanted to taste the strip nekkid.  And just for fun, click here to see me pouring the marinade over the steaks.  I was having fun with the video capture on my phone.

Another reason I haven’t tried these steaks before is due to not being able to grill for what seems like forever!! We have had a grill for many years but, sadly, lived in a place where we couldn’t use it.  We have remedied that by buying  a house!!  Now, we can grill anytime we want.  And trust me when I say we grill any time.  If it’s raining, I’m not opposed to stepping out, getting a little wet, and grilling up some dinner.  You just can’t beat the flavor of grilled meat.

 

Since being introduced to these steaks, I would grill ANY time to have these world-class steaks on our table year round.  Rain, shine, snow, hurricane, tornado – well, maybe not a tornado, but you get the idea – I would be out there grilling these beauties up for dinner.  Since the Certified Angus Beef® brand are reasonably priced for online steaks, we will definitely be ordering them for holidays, birthdays, and, well, whenever we feel like having an amazing dining experience right in our own home.

While we’re on the subject, I took a look at all the places that serve or sell Certified Angus Beef® brand in my area and was surprised to find 21 different restaurants (some with multiple chains) that serve up this world-class beef.  You can BET that I will be looking for these restaurants on our next date night.

  1. Ok, I’ve seen this so many times today and every time I think I need to try this marinade, I hope I have all the ingredients to do it today…and guess what?! I DO! I have some of those steaks in the fridge and now I’m going to get right up and marinade them so I can grill them tonight! Great recipe!

  2. Love that marinade! I even have sorgum molasses in my pantry (along with the other ingredients). I will be trying this soon.
