Steps:
- Whisk bourbon, soy sauce, brown sugar, Dijon, olive oil, pineapple juice, Worcestershire, garlic, and ginger together in a medium mixing bowl until thoroughly combined and mustard is well broken down in the mix.
- Place steaks in a large resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade into the bag and squeeze out excess air. Seal the bag and marinate in the refrigerator, 8 hours to overnight.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
- Remove steaks from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.
- Place steaks on the preheated grill and cook until they are beginning to firm and are hot and slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium. Turn steaks once during cooking and shift twice to mark the steaks with diamond patterns.

Steps:
- Combine beer, sweet onion, soy sauce, molasses, rosemary, garlic and Worcestershire sauce in a large sealable plastic bag. Add steaks. Seal the bag, shake and turn it, and refrigerate, flipping over and shaking the bag from time to time, for 12 to 18 hours.
- Preheat a grill to medium. Remove the steaks from the marinade and pat dry. Reserve 1 cup marinade (discard the rest). Grill the steaks until browned on the first side, 5 to 7 minutes. Turn over and grill until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the steak registers 125°F for medium-rare. Remove from the grill and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, place the reserved 1 cup marinade in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Boil until reduced by about half, 7 to 10 minutes.
- Drizzle each steak with about 1 tablespoon of the reduced sauce and serve.
Tips:
- Always choose high-quality rib-eye steaks for the best flavor and texture.
- Marinating the steaks for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, helps tenderize and flavor the meat.
- Use a flavorful marinade that complements the beef, such as one made with olive oil, herbs, spices, and citrus.
- Cook the steaks over high heat to quickly sear the outside and lock in the juices.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking until the steaks reach your desired doneness.
- Let the steaks rest for a few minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
Conclusion:
Marinated rib-eye steaks are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. By following the tips above, you can create perfectly cooked steaks that are juicy, flavorful, and tender. Serve them with your favorite sides, such as grilled vegetables, roasted potatoes, or a simple salad, for a complete and satisfying meal.
