Steak your claim and Bake on it.

I am doing a series of Steak meals with a cocktail theme. I am not a big drinker, but the idea of a refreshing summer beverage marinating a juicy Rib Eye just couldn't be left undone.

Last night I made a nice marinade of tequila, lime and mint with a hint of paprika for some heat on the sizzle. It was good, but I was expecting something else I think.

Tonight I am doing a similar marinade but using rum in place of the tequila, I am adding minced garlic and honey with brown sugar and using a fresh mint, not a dried spice. I am going to let it soak all day and grill them up tonight about 6pm. I am going to accompany this with a twice baked herb and cream mashed potato dish. If I feel this is of worth, I will post the results and the recipe.

Happy eating!
