1. For London broil. Poke steak on both sides liberally with a fork piercing the meat before marinating.
2. For Sirloin steak and steak tips. You may pierce meat slightly with fork. It is not nessasary.
3. Mix all ingredients in a bowl. Place steak in a plastic bag. Pour marinade in to bag with steak. Coat steak on all sides with marinade. After 1 1/2- 2 hours. Flip steak over and distribute marinade all over steak again. Marinade for 3-4 hours total time in refrigerator.
4. Slice large onion in half after peeling. Slice in to half inch slices. Heat nonstick pan spray liberally with butter flavor spray, or you may use olive oil. I made this recipe carb free and lower fat for myself. Place onions in pan. Fry tossing constantly with a spatula over high heat . Turn down a to medium high. Continue stirring and tossing the onions until nicely golden brown. Stir in a quarter cup of water. Continue to cook until water evaporates remove from pan into a bowl. Cover bowl and set-aside.
5. Heat grill to high heat. Spray with oil spray. Heat grill until piping hot. Depending on the temperature outside. It should take about 15 to 20 minutes. Place steak on hot grill. Sear steak on both sides. Reduce heat to medium high. Continue to cook until desired doneness.top with onions, and serve
6. Cooking tip for desired doneness. This is based on a 1 inch thick steak. Cook on both sides for approximately one minute for a medium rare steak. The grill must be piping hot in order to do this. Temperature should be over 500°. Grills may vary. Please adjust timing if your grill does not reach that temperature. For instance. My grill reaches 600° A good way to check for doneness. Before placing steak on grill get a feel of steak. A raw steak feels kind of squishy. The longer it cooks the the less squishy it will feel. A well-done steak will feel very dense and firm. A medium will feel in between dense and squishy For the most tender meat I suggest cooking your steak medium rare to medium. ( london btoil I always cook medium rare. Anything over that will make the steak tougher. You may also use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. Rare 120 degree's very red in center Medium rare 130 degree's red but not shiny Medium 135 degree's light pink Medium well 140 degree's starting to gray in center Well done 150 degree's toally gray in center

Tips for Perfectly Grilled Steak:

Choose the Right Cut of Steak: Select a steak with good marbling, as this will help keep it tender and juicy during grilling.
Bring Steak to Room Temperature: Before grilling, allow the steak to come to room temperature for about 30 minutes. This helps ensure even cooking.
Season the Steak Generously: Season the steak liberally with salt and pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will enhance the flavor of the steak.
Preheat Your Grill: Preheat your grill to high heat before grilling the steak. This will help create a nice sear on the outside of the steak, while keeping the inside tender and juicy.
Sear the Steak: Place the seasoned steak on the hot grill and sear for 2-3 minutes per side, or until you get a nice charred crust.
Reduce Heat and Continue Cooking: After searing, reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking the steak for 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired internal temperature.
Let the Steak Rest: Once the steak is cooked to your desired doneness, remove it from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
