Using a marinade on steak is a good way to create fresh flavors and it also helps tenderize a firmer piece of meat. A marinade can be used on any piece of steak but is more useful on lower-quality cuts.
There are lots of flavor options and combinations, this one is a more basic Asian-inspired one. The flavor comes from garlic and ginger with the acid being soy sauce.
While camping the marinade can be applied in a bag making transport and clean up easy. At home a shallow bowl or casserole dish can be used, it is better to avoid plastics that can absorb the flavors and/or become stained.
Once marinated the chunks of ginger may be left one or wiped of the steak before cooking.
If the marinade doesnt fully cover the steak it will need to be turned during the marinading process.
All steaks need to be rested for at least five minutes after cooking and before serving.
The marinated steak can be cooked to your preferred doneness.
The steak is left to marinade for at least an hour but not longer that three hours.
