Ingredients

Gather the ingredients.
With a sharp knife score the flank steak, about 1/8-inch deep, making a diamond pattern.
Mix garlic, mustard, oil, whiskey, salt, and pepper together in small bowl.
Place steak and marinade in a resealable bag and pour mixture over top. Make sure the entire steak is well coated in the marinade, seal bag and place in the refrigerator for at least 8 and up to 24 hours.
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Remove steak from bag and discard marinade.
Place meat onto grill and cook for6 to 7minutes per side, brushing with butter periodically.
Once the meat has reached the desired doneness, remove from grill and let meat rest for 5 minutes.
Slice into strips, across the grain and serve.

This recipe is great as it is, but feel free to add a little bit here or there to customize it to your liking.
If you want a faster marinade that's ready in a couple of hours but can also sit in the fridge for up to 8, add 1/4 cup soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce.
If you want a slightly sweeter marinade, add 1/4 cup of brown sugar.
To kick up the heat, feel free to include 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon of red pepper flakes.
For more herbal notes, use a teaspoon of dried thyme or rosemary (or a combination of both), or a tablespoon of chopped fresh thyme and/or rosemary.

Steak will keep for three to five days in the fridge if it's well covered, but it may dry out a bit. Repurpose those leftovers in a salad, if you like.
Reheat in a very low oven (250 F) until the steak's internal temperature reaches about 110 degrees; you want to warm it up slowly without drying it out. Heat a tablespoon of oil in a skillet over high heat until it's smoking. Sear the steaks for about a minute or so on each side, and serve immediately.
