Sugar Steak with Bourbon
“What is the meaning of life? How can you define love? What happens when you combine sugar and steak? Summerset is here to help answer these questions, well at least the last one. This week we bring you Sugar Steak with Bourbon, and every word sounds lovely! Featuring, flank steak rubbed and marinated in sugar, bourbon, and red pepper, this is a true masterpiece for the masses.
Begin by rubbing the sugar and red pepper flakes into the steak, then place in a resealable bag and allow to marinate for 30 minutes to three hours. The flank steak is one of the tougher cuts making it great for this intense rub and marinade. Season with salt, and then grill over medium-high heat for a few minutes per side. Let the steak rest and then cut into strips for serving. Finish moist, charred, caramelized, and a little spicy from the red pepper and bourbon, this steak unequivocally answers all of life’s questions… at least the third one!
