I will start by saying that the marinade has great flavor. You get a little citrus from the orange juice, and a nice savory flavor from the package meat marinade.
Unfortunately the steaks were really tough.
I think this was in part because of the cheaper cut of steak. I think this was exacerbated by the length of cooking time.
I know that if you have a less expensive cut of meat cooking for an extended period of time can soften the meat up. These steaks were too thin for that to work.
I would like to try this recipe again but without cutting the meat into steaks. I think it would turn out much better as a roast.
