Grilled Chuck Steak

Ingredients

• 1 (3- to 5-pound) chuck roast (about 3 inches thick)
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
• 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon celery salt
• 1/2 teaspoon pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon oregano flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon rosemary
• 1 to 2 cloves garlic, minced

Instructions

1. Mix all ingredients except meat for marinade.
2. In a nonmetal pan marinate meat for at least 3 hours, turning several times and basting with mixture.
3. Cook on grill over hot coals 10 minutes on each side for medium-rare meat. For medium to well-done meat, cook 2 to 3 minutes longer per side.

Yields 6 to 8 servings.

If preferred, meat can be smoked for 1 to 2 hours instead of grilling.
