Dale's Flank Steak
Submitted by: Chris Dale, Mass.

INGREDIENTS
One 12-ounce jar orange marmalade
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1 tablespoon chili powder
2 tablespoons A-1 steak sauce
1/2 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
3 pounds flank steak
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste

DIRECTIONS
In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and mix 'em up well. Set aside 1 cup of the marinade and add the flank steak to the remaining marinade and coat well. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Preheat your BBQ grill so it's pretty darn hot. Toss the steak on the grill, pour some of the marinade on top. After a minute to get a good sear, flip the flank steak over and pour a bit more of the marinade on that side. Discard any leftover marinade (since it had been on raw meat). Turn the BBQ burner down to medium. Flip again after 4 more minutes, and then remove after 4 additional minutes. This will be fairly rare; add a 1-2 minutes per side for more well done. While you let the flank steak sit for 5 minutes, microwave the cup of marinade that you put aside earlier so it is good-n-hot. Spread half of the marinade across the steak and cut again the grain into thin slices. Provide the last of the marinade for those that want a little extra on their pieces, and start chowing down!

1/2 cup green peppers julienne cut
1 cup yellow onion julienne cut
Butter as needed
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste
Garlic granulated, to taste
1 slice Cheddar cheese
1 slice Monterey jack cheese sliced

Directions: Preheat skillet or grill to 550 degrees F. Shake blackened steak seasoning on to one side of meat and grill to desired doneness, turning halfway on grill between "flips" to achieve "diamond" grill marks. While steak is cooking, cut onions and peppers. Melt butter and sauté onions and peppers. Season with salt, pepper and garlic. Reduce heat and hold until steak is cooked.
