  • 2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger
  • 1 teaspoon dry mustard

Cooking:

  1. Combine Marinade ingredients in small bowl; reserve 1/4 cup marinade for basting. Place remaining Marinade in food-safe plastic bag; add beef Chuck Shoulder Steak, turn to coat. Close bag securely and marinate in refrigerator 6 hours or as long as overnight, turning occasionally.
