I used this as a 5 hour marinade for skirt steak. I marinated 2 pounds of skirt steak with it for 5 hours. The only deviation I made to the recipe is to omit the parsley (I had some, but it just burns on the grill) and add an additional tablespoon of Worcestershire sauce. I ground fresh pepper on the steaks before grilling them and grilled them for 3 minutes a side, and then rested for 7 minutes. It was a very good marinade. It didn't overpower the meat, but enhanced the flavor of it. I did not find it to be too much soy sauce or too much vinegar at all-- quite the contrary I found it well balanced. Although, I use premium quality of both and if you use lower quality vinegar or soy that might explain why some found those notes to be too strident.

Can I just say, again, this recipe makes flank steak turn into crack for me? I love this plain. I love it left over the next day, sliced thin, on top of a big salad. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for this recipe! GAH! I shouldn't eat this much beef but I can't stop when I make this! -
I only marinaded this for about 5 hours, and the steak came out excellent. I don't think I'd want to marinade this longer. There was enough flavor there already. I might cut back a little on the soy sauce next time. This is going to be a keeper! -
We loved this marinade....very easy! I used olive oil and less of it, about a 1/3 of a cup. I didn't measure any of the ingredients, just guess-timated and it turned out wonderful. I scored my flank steak on the diagonal, both ways and both sides, to get the marinade really in there and then I grilled it to rare/medium rare. Grilling season has just begun up here in the Northwoods and I'm glad I found this one early on....it will be used often this summer. Thanks so much for posting :) -
If I could give this a higher review I would. This is my all-time favorite marinade. I would highly recommend this to everyone. It is cheap so even if you aren't sure there isn't really any money lost. Two thumbs up! I especially like it with a goronzola sauce and roasted potatoe wedges. As Rachel Ray would say, Yummo!

Great marinade, my tweaks...Apple cider vinegar instead of red wine, turmeric instead of mustard, Orange juice instead of lemon and dark soy. I'll definitely make this again! -
This was fabulous - best flank steak we've ever made. I used 1/2 cup oil, balsamic instead of red wine vinegar, 1 tbsp lemon juice + 1 tbsp orange juice, 3 cloves of garlic, and increased the parsley to 1 tbsp. I also added about a tsp of black pepper to the marinade. It marinated about 6-7 hours total, and I broiled it 5 min per side for perfect medium rare. After broiling I let it rest about 10 minutes. While it was resting I reduced the marinade on the stove top and skimmed off the oil for a delicious sauce. Thanks L DJ for a terrific recipe! I can't wait to have the leftovers tonight! -
This was good. I used balsamic vinegar instead of red wine vinegar. I added some sugar and a bit more lemon juice to add flavor. Definitely a keeper, will make again.

I substituted Balsamic vinegar for red wine and used Dijon mustard instead of dry and everyone loved it... Definitely a keeper!!!
