INGREDIENTS:
1/3 cup red wine vinegar
1/3 cup water
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1/2 teaspoon white sugar
salt and pepper to taste
2 pounds beef chuck steaks, well trimmed
DIRECTIONS:
1. In a large bowl, combine the vinegar, water, oil, thyme, sugar and salt and pepper to taste. Add the steaks, mixing well, and let marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 8 hours.
2. Prepare an outdoor grill with an oiled rack set 6 inches from the coals. On a gas grill, set heat to medium.
