How to Marinate Grilled Beef

To achieve perfectly flavored, tender, and succulent grilled beef, follow these steps:

Step 1: Prepare the Ingredients

• First, wash the beef thoroughly, then slice it into pieces about 0.5cm thick. To make slicing easier and more aesthetically pleasing, you can place the beef in the freezer for about 30 minutes until it’s slightly firm.
• Peel and wash the shallots, garlic, and chili peppers, then crush and finely mince them. Place all of them in a separate bowl.
• Remove the outer layers of the lemongrass, trim the root end, wash thoroughly, then crush and finely mince it just like the shallots, garlic, and chili peppers, and add it to the same bowl.
• Next, place a pan on the stove and add a little cooking oil. When the oil is hot, add the annatto seeds to infuse for color. Once the oil turns a beautiful dark brown, turn off the heat and remove the seeds, keeping only the annatto oil.
• Finally, thoroughly mix all the prepared ingredients: minced shallots, garlic, lemongrass, oyster sauce, annatto oil, honey, cinnamon powder, and ground pepper. Depending on the amount of beef and your taste, add more salt, sugar, MSG, and a little fish sauce to the seasoning mixture.

Step 2: Marinate the Beef

• Lay out each beef slice on a flat plate.
• Wearing gloves, take the prepared seasoning mixture and rub it evenly onto each piece of meat, ensuring the seasoning adheres to all surfaces.
• After marinating each piece individually, stack them on top of each other and continue to knead them gently once more so the meat absorbs the seasoning thoroughly.
• Cover the bowl of meat tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 2 – 3 hours. This time allows the seasoning to penetrate deeply into each fiber, making the grilled dish much richer and more delicious.

Step 3: Grill the Beef

• Once the beef has absorbed the seasoning, arrange it on a grill rack and grill over traditional charcoal for a distinctive aroma, or use a convenient electric grill/oven.
• While grilling, you need to constantly flip both sides to ensure the meat cooks evenly to a golden brown, doesn’t burn, and retains its tenderness and juiciness inside.

Step 4: Finished Product

• When the golden, fragrant grilled beef slices are served on a plate and arranged with fresh vegetables, you’ll immediately have an incredibly appealing, eye-catching, and palate-stimulating dish.

Tips for Marinating Grilled Beef

To achieve perfect grilled beef, you not only need a standard marinating recipe but also some important secrets in choosing and preparing the meat:

• Choose fresh and suitable meat: You should prioritize cuts of meat like sirloin, chuck, short plate, or beef ribs with some fat intermingled to prevent the grilled dish from drying out and to maintain its natural tenderness and sweetness.
• Properly prepare the meat:
  • Before slicing, you can wash the meat thoroughly and place it in the freezer for about 30 minutes.
  • The meat will be slightly firmer, making it easier to slice thinly and evenly for a beautiful presentation.
  • To make the beef more tender, you can slice the meat against the grain.
  • If the piece of meat seems tough, use a meat tenderizer mallet to lightly pound the surface to loosen the muscle fibers, making the meat softer and easier to chew when grilled.
  • Additionally, you can marinate the beef with a little salt, vinegar, cooking oil, or wine before adding the main seasonings to help tenderize the meat significantly.
• Create distinctive color and flavor: To give your grilled beef an appealing color and captivating aroma, don’t forget to marinate the meat with annatto oil, oyster sauce, and a little cinnamon powder. These ingredients will create a glossy outer layer and an unforgettable flavor for the grilled dish.
