Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
- 1 1/2 pounds top round or boneless chuck steak, 1 to 1 1/2 inches thick
- 1/4 cups red wine vinegar
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons steak sauce
- 1 clove garlic, minced

Preparation:
Combine red wine vinegar, olive oil, garlic, sage, savory, salt, dry mustard and paprika in a small bowl to make marinade. Blend well. Place steak in a resealable plastic bag or shallow baking dish. Cover with marinade. Make sure that the meat is well coated. Let sit for at least 6 hours in the refrigerator. Preheat grill. Remove meat from marinade and pour marinade into a small bowl. Add steak sauce to marinade and mix well. Place steak on grill over medium heat. Watch carefully to avoid flare-ups. Grill steak until it reaches desired
doneness. Brush with marinade while grilling. Heat tortillas by wrapping them in foil and placing on grill. Let warm for 5 to 10 minutes, turning once. When the steak is done, remove from grill and cut across the grain into thin strips. Serve with tortillas, onions, chilies, salsa and guacamole.
