This Steak Can Really Cut the Mustard!!

I use prepared, commercial spice mixes quite often. These packaged remedies are handy and save me some time. Of course, most of these off-the-shelf preparations can be easily prepared at home and modifications can be made to tune the flavors. I am not quite that motivated and stick to the shelf stuff.

Here is a very good and fast main course I found at the McCormick web-site.

Sizzlin’ Steak a la Montreal

4 tsp McCormick Grill Mates Montreal Steak Seasoning
2 tsp McCormick Ground Mustard
1 ½ tsp Balsamic Vinegar
2 New York or Rib eye steaks, each about 1-inch thick

Combine spices and vinegar to make a paste. Rub the paste on the steaks. Broil or grill on high heat for 5 to 7 minutes per side or to desired doneness. Remove from heat and tent on a warm plate under foil for 5 minutes or so.

I serve this with a baked (microwave, to save time) yam or sweet potato and some steamed veggies. Super good and fast.
