Steps:
- Combine all the ingredients (except steaks) in a bowl. Mix well. You may choose to puree the marinade to get a more consistent mix.
- Reserve one cup of marinade for basting.
- Place three steaks in a gallon storage bag, place the other three in a second bag.
- Divide remaining marinade and pour over steaks. Seal bags and allow steaks to marinate in the refridgerator for four hours or more.
- Grill steaks with medium-hot coals. Leave to coals lumped in the middle of the grill and grill the steaks around them, not directly above them.
- I turn the steaks a few times on the grill and baste liberally with the reserved marinade during cooking.
MARINATED GRILLED CHUCK STEAK
This chuck steak marinates for at least 8 hours, so be prepared. For me, this is a different taste for steak, with the chili powder. But it goes well with the chuck steak and it turns out nice and tender. And it doesn't use soy sauce, so that extra sodium content is eliminated. Great for this less expensive piece of meat. Marinating time is not included in the prep time!

Steps:
- Trim excess fat from the steak, and place in a shallow container or a large zip lock bag.
- Combine all the other ingredients, stirring well; pour the marinade over the steak. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator at least 8 hours, turning once.
- Take steak out of the refrigerator to let it sit while you are getting your charcoal ready on your grill. This will help relax the meat so it is even more tender.
- Remove steak from the marinade. Grill over hot coals 8 minutes on each side, or until it reaches the desired degree of doneness. (I don't cook mine that long).

Tips:
- Choose the right steak: Look for a chuck steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling. This will ensure that the steak is juicy and flavorful.
- Marinate the steak: Marinating the steak in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use any type of marinade you like, but a simple olive oil, garlic, and herb marinade is always a good choice.
- Cook the steak over high heat: This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside juicy and tender. You can cook the steak on a grill, in a grill pan, or in a cast iron skillet.
- Let the steak rest before slicing: Once the steak is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
