Ingredients

  • 1 ½ pounds flat iron steak
  • ½ cup BBQ sauce plus extra for serving
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 4 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
  • Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together ½ cup BBQ sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper if using.
  2. Marinate the Steak: Place the flat iron steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it is well coated. Seal or cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours for maximum flavor.
  3. Preheat the Grill: Preheat your grill to high heat (about 450°F or 232°C).
  4. Grill the Steak: Remove the steak from the marinade and let excess marinade drip off. Grill the steak for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, adjusting time for your desired doneness.
  5. Rest the Steak: Remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
  6. Serve: Slice the steak against the grain, serve with additional BBQ sauce, and garnish with chopped parsley.
