Tangy Flank Steak Sandwiches image

This recipe is from Sunset magazine, probably back in the 80's. My mom used to make it for us for Father's Day every year. DH and I now make it, but we don't make sandwiches. We do double the sauce to pour over the meat on our plates. Instead of making sandwiches, we dip french bread in the extra sauce. It tastes great leftover too.

Number Of Ingredients 10

2/3 cup ketchup
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon celery seed
2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon dry basil
1 1/2 lbs flank steaks
French bread (use rolls if you want to make sandwiches)

Steps:

  • In a small pan, combine the ketchup, water, lemon juice, Worcestershire, celery seed, bay leaves, pepper, and basil.
  • Simmer, uncovered, stirring occassionally, for 10 minutes.
  • Let marinade cool.
  • Meanwhile, use a sharp knife to lightly score both sides of the steak, making diagonal cuts across the steak about 1 inch apart to form a diamond pattern.
  • Place meat in a dish and pour cooled marinade over the meat.
  • Cover and refrigerate about 24 hours.
  • Remove meat to BBQ but save the marinade.
  • BBQ meat until done to your liking. (allow about 5 - 7 minutes each side for medium rare).
  • Pour marinade into a small pan and heat on the stove until hot and simmering.
  • Cut meat across the grain in thin slanting slices.
  • Serve with sauce and french bread.

I found that the steak was a bit tough, even though I followed the recipe exactly. I think I might try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

These sandwiches were a bit too tangy for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. The steak was cooked perfectly though.

This is my go-to recipe for flank steak sandwiches. The steak is always tender and flavorful, and the sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and tangy.

I love how versatile this recipe is. I've made it with different cuts of steak and it always turns out great. The sauce is also really good on chicken or fish.
