Yes, you are reading that title correct, this cooking method has the meat sit in the marinade after it is cooked during its rest. During this time the meat activates all the flavors and absorbs them.

The marinade has the same essential components as a pre-cook marinade such as oil, acid, and flavor. Make sure it is warm, or at least not super cold as you don’t want to negatively impact the cooked steak.

Although something different it is definitely worth giving it a go.

Recipe Directions

1. Marinade

2. In a shallow dish that can fit the cooked steaks flat, combine the olive oil, fresh thyme, red wine vinegar, crushed garlic, and salt. Combine well and set aside until needed.

3. Rump Steak

4. Prepare a direct fire for hot grilling, when to temperature add the white oak for a little smoke flavor.

5. Trim the rump steak as/if needed. Lightly salt and pepper each side.
