ready in:
  1-2 hrs

ingredients

1 can (14.5 ounce size) beef broth
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
6 beef eye of round steaks, 3/4-inch thick

directions

Combine the broth, lemon juice, soy sauce, garlic powder, and black pepper in a zip-top bag or plastic container. Add the steaks and turn to coat completely in the marinade. Seal the bag or cover the container and refrigerate for 1 hour, turning the steaks as needed.

Preheat the grill or broiler.

Remove the steaks from the marinade. Place on the grill or on a broiler pan and place under the broiler. Cook for 15 minutes for medium, turning as needed (add less or more time depending on desired doneness). Brush with the marinade every 5 minutes.

recipe tips


If the steaks are tougher, marinate them overnight to help tenderize.

Let the steaks come to room temperature before grilling. This will help them cook evenly.

To prevent sticking, oil the grill grates before cooking.

Rest the steaks for a few minutes after grilling to allow the juices to redistribute.

For a smoky flavor, add a pinch of smoked paprika to the marinade.

Avoid piercing the steaks with a fork during cooking; use tongs to flip them.

If you prefer a sweeter marinade, add a tablespoon of brown sugar.

Try adding herbs like rosemary or thyme to the marinade.

Remember to discard any leftover marinade that has been in contact with raw meat.
