Bourbon Street Sirloin Steak a la Applebee's
I have always wondered how a relatively cheap piece of beef got so good. An obvious target to recreate. If this was a throw down, I'd win. Better taste, very tender and definitely more moist. A simple marinade for 2 hours then 12 minutes on the grill. Grrrrreat!!!!! This one goes in my repeat over and over file.

I just tried this recipe at Applebees a few weeks ago and I was wondering the same thing! I was suprised at how flavorful and tender it was- I thought I just got lucky! I can't wait to try this myself. Thanks for posting this recipe!
I've been meaning to get one of those jaccards but haven't gotten around to ordering one.
Nice looking steaks.
The jaccard (that's the tenderizer thing for the rest of you) fell apart during cleaning. Just 2 screws but I can't seem to find them yet. It is "fun" and I think I was too aggressive.
Where did you get that tenderizer thing from? Now I want one.
I've always been skeptical about getting a steak at Applebee's. However, I'd definitely give this recipe a shot at home.
It's not a porterhouse but very good for what is is. I do really love the flavor
can i use my george forman grill? i stay in apartments and can not use a grill
I would try it. I can't give you a time but check the temperature of the steak.
