How to Make Adobo Steak

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup apple cider vinegar, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon ground black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin.
  2. Place steaks (about 1.5 inches thick) in a resealable plastic bag. Pour marinade over steaks, ensuring they are fully coated.
  3. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours for maximum tenderness.
  4. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (approximately 375-400°F).
  5. Grill steaks for 10-15 minutes for medium, turning halfway through, or until desired internal temperature is reached (use a meat thermometer for accuracy). Cook time will depend on thickness of steaks and desired doneness.
  6. Let steaks rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
