My buddy, Bill, had tried this commercial marinade and liked it.
As he is a good buddy, he brought me a bottle of it, Clubhouse LaGrille Signature Steakhouse 30 minute Marinade. I had a couple of sirloin steaks and gave it a try.
I just spread the sauce over both sides of the steak and covered it. I put it in the fridge for 3 hours. They say you can get away with 30 minutes but admit it will be better if you marinate it longer.
I fried the steak up on my Weber Grill that had been preheated on high.
The Verdict
This is a nice full flavoured marinade. I can make better but this is very good and has a nice steak sauce type flavour with a cumin overtone. It doesn’t overpower the beef and makes a nice tasting steak. I don’t mind having this around for when I feel lazy and want to marinate a steak without a lot of work. I am lazy so I will use it!

Very nice looking Steak, I don’t use many marinades on my steaks but will have to give it a try. Thanks

Thanks, Sam. I usually just season my steaks a bit. I don’t like the texture a long marinade gives beef. However, a short marinade like this can just add a bit of flavor.
I do agree with you, I normally use some Montreal steak seasoning and off to the grill.

If you are trying to cut down your salt, Sam, Clubhouse makes a steak spice with no added salt that is quite similar to Montreal Steak Spice.
I’m lazy all the time, so the marinade works out well for me.
Yes, but you make great food!
