Ingredients

4 tuna steaks — 1″ thick
1 cup bourbon
Vegetable oil
Salt and freshly ground pepper — to taste

Directions

1) Place steaks in a shallow glass or ceramic dish. Pour the bourbon over the fish and let stand covered for 1 hour.

2) Preheat the grill.

3) Toss a hand full or three of wood chips on the lava rock or coals. Brush the grid with oil.

4) Remove the fish from the marinade (resist the temptation to drink it), and pat dry. Lightly brush with oil and grill over high heat for 5 minutes per side. Baste before turning. Sprinkle with salt and pepper before serving.
