Lemongrass pork steaks

The wife concocted a nice little Vietnamese-inspired marinade, consisting of lemongrass stalks, fish sauce, rice wine vinegar, ginger, sesame oil, honey, and garlic all blended up in a food processor. We marinated a couple of pork steaks in this green pasty goodness and put the Weber to work.

Here's a shot of them on direct heat after a little more than an hour indirect:

And the finished product, served with rice and pickled vegetables:

Let me tell you, this was GOOD. We had tried these on chops previously, and they were good, but the pork steaks were much much better. They absorbed a lot more flavor from the marinade, and could stand a longer cooking process. Definitely a winner, and one we'll be doing again. Think I may try a variation of this marinade on chicken wings in the near future.
 
Sean that looks so delicious and that marinade sounds awesome. We love doing pork steak, will have to give this one a try.

No idea how I missed this the first time you posted it, Mildo. That's great. I think next time I'm going to make a basting sauce based on your marinade and apply it to the pork steaks during cooking. Thanks for the link!
