Grilled Elk Steaks Recipes

GRILLED ELK STEAKS

Steps:

• Using a fork or other tenderizing tool, puncture both sides of the elk steaks.
• Place elk steaks in a pan or dish.
• Sprinkle Italian dressing over the steaks. Turn to coat the opposite side of the steaks. (I use Good Seasons Italian Dressing that I make using red wine vinegar.)
• Sprinkle McCormick's Brand Montreal steak seasoning to coat one side of the steaks. (You could sprinkle seasoning over both sides, but if you use too much seasoning, you'll overpower the taste of the meat.).
• Cover the steaks with foil and place in the fridge.
• *Marinate at least an hour, overnight if possible.
• Grill steaks over medium heat approximately 5-6 minutes on each side depending on the thickness of the steaks and the desired doneness.
• Serve with mushrooms. Enjoy!
• *Prep time does not include marinating time.

ELK STEAK MARINADE

Steps:

• Whisk canola oil, onion, lemon juice, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, and pepper in a bowl until marinade is well mixed. Place elk steak in a large resealable plastic bag and pour marinade over meat. Coat meat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, turning occasionally.
• Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Drain elk steak and discard marinade.
• Cook steaks on the preheated grill until they are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
