Black’s Flank Steak Marinade
secret recipe

1 cup tomato or v8 juice (I used V8)
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup soy sauce (Tamari)
1/2 cup olive oil or veg. oil
two chopped fresh tomatoes*
two teaspoons black garlic paste*
salt & pepper
garlic cloves, sliced


1.Score steak lightly on both sides in diamond pattern.
2.Mix up marinade and cover steak, add salt and pepper.
3.Keep at room temp at least an hour before grilling.
The recipe is marvelous but the technique is important to understand. What you have is a flavorful but very fibrous muscle. The tomato juice has acid that breaks the tissues down. The oil helps carry the flavors into the meat. Black garlic, fresh garlic and tomatoes all are rich with umami the fifth taste also known as savory.

We grilled the flank steak after marinating a few hours. We grilled it quickly then boiled down a bit of the marinade as a sauce.

Finally, one of the most important thing about flank steak, after a good marinade, is to slice it on the bias.

When we think it's gotten too hard to get by, often we can learn from those who came before us. Their skills, their stories, and their recipes can help us make it through tough times and not just survive them, but savor them. Don't overlook those gems in your old recipe files or those recipes your old friends will be happy to share.
