Bye Week: Rocky Top Talk is now a food blog

Related Topics: Cooking, Meat, Steak, Rosemary, Salt

Taking a page from And the Valley Shook, we're talking about cooking during the bye week.

The Vols are off this week, so rather than dealing with all of the logistics of preparing a tailgate, you can relax in the comfort of your own home with delicious grilled meats and college football. If you have an excess of rosemary, flank steak, and laziness, try this easy marinade from Cook's Illustrated (now passworded, so check this out instead: Grilled Flank Steak with Rosemary).

Marinade Ingredients

  • 4-5 cloves of garlic
  • 2 tablespoons worth of freshly chopped rosemary
  • 2 teaspoons of salt
  • a couple grinds of black pepper
  • half a cup of olive oil

A few words about meat

The original recipe calls for flank steak, but there's a whole range of meats that you could use.
