The beef share we got last year came with two packages of cube steak, a cut I had previously never heard of. A little research revealed that it is an economy cut from a tougher part of the cow, mechanically tenderized. Marinating is a good idea, and it needs to be cooked quickly.
The lime-garlic combo is a good one for any steak on the grill, so feel free to use the marinade with other cuts.
2 lbs cube steak
1/4 cup lime juice
1/4 cup minced garlic
2 Tbsp canola oil
1 1/2 tsp salt
Pepper to taste
Bring the steak(s) to room temperature. While you do so, make the marinade by combining all the other ingredients in a bowl. Liberally cover the steak with the marinade on both sides and let sit for an hour or so.
Heat up the grill, then cook the cube steak for 1 to 1 1/2 minutes per side over fairly high heat. Do not overcook or it will be tough.
Serves 4-6.
