Bloody Mary Flank Steak

1 cup vegetable juice
1/2 cup vodka
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon hot sauce
1 tablespoon juice
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 tablespoon crushed garlic
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon celery seed
1 tablespoon prepared horseradish
4 tablespoons olive oil
1 pound flank steak

Thoroughly mix all the ingredients except for the flank steak in a 1 gallon zip lock bag. Add the flank steak. Marinate in the fridge for at least 8 hours and up to 24 hours.

Preheat the grill to high or heat a skillet over high heat. Remove the flank steak from the marinade and wipe the excess liquid off with paper towels. Grill or pan sear both sides, then lower heat to medium and cook to what doneness you like. Let the flank steak rest, covered, with a clean towel for 5-10 minutes. Cut on the bias against the grain and serve.

This is a recipe from Guy Fieri shown on his show Guy's Big Bite on the Food Network. I made this with no tweaks except I did not have any flank steak. This marinade works well on any cut of steak. The flavour was subtle but every now and then you'd get a little kick from the horseradish.
