Grilled Marinated Venison Steak

Ingredients

1 ½ lbs. venison steak an 1 inch thick
3 Tablespoons olive oil
1 Tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 Tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons minced garlic
½ teaspoon ground pepper
¼ cup dry red wine

Directions

Mix all the marinade ingredients together in a measuring cup.

Place venison in a large zip lock bag.

Pour marinade over steak and seal the bag.

Place bag in a flat casserole dish so that the steak lies flat.

Refrigerate and marinate at least 5 hours, turning every half hour to marinate each side.

Drain the marinade at let the steak come to room temperature at least 1 hour.

Spray grill grate with spray oil and heat the grill to 500 F.

Pat the steak dry with paper towels and then rub both sides of steak with olive oil.

Lay the steak on the grill. Do not disturb for 2 minutes. With tongs pick up the steak and move it 90 degrees on the grill — this will give you the cross-hatch grill marks. Grill another 2 minutes on the same side.

Flip the steak and grill until medium rare, using the same method as the first side. Do the Finger test for doneness about 4 minutes.

Move the steak to a platter and let it rest for at least 5 minutes.

Slice the meat and serve.
