Grilled Venison Steak with Smoky Honey Marinade

Ready in 1 day 25 mins

Ingredients

Makes: 1 steak

• 2 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons liquid smoke
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
• 1 tablespoon red pepper flakes
• 1 tablespoon sea salt
• 1 venison steak (or more)

 

 

1.

Combine all ingredients except steak in a large plastic resealable bag. Add steak, seal the bag, and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 24 hours to marinate.

2.

Heat your gas or charcoal grill to high (Here's how to tell if it's high: Hold your hand about four inches above the cooking surface. After 2 to 3 seconds, the heat will force you to pull your hand away.)

3.

Oil the grill grate, using an oiled rag.

4.

Remove steak from marinade and place on the grill. Use these cooking times to cook your steak to medium: 2 to 3 minutes per side for a 1/2-inch thick steak, 4 to 6 minutes per side for a 1-inch thick steak, 6 to 9 minutes per side for a 1 1/2 to 2-inch thick steak.

5.

Take the steak off the grill. Let rest 2 to 3 minutes to allow the juices to reabsorb into the steak. Serve.

Note Recipe makes about 3/4 cup of marinade, enough for 1 1/2 pounds of steak.
