You'll need:

1 (1-1/2 pound) Kentucky Proud top round steak, 1-1/2 inches thick

3 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1/4 cup Kentucky straight bourbon whiskey

1/3 cup soy sauce

2 tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1/4 cup packed brown sugar

2 tablespoons minced Kentucky Proud garlic

1 teaspoon salt

2 teaspoons pepper

Combine all ingredients except steak in a bowl.  Mix well to produce marinade.  Place steak in a sealable plastic bag.  Pour the marinade over the steak and seal the bag.  Marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 12 hours.  Drain the steak, discarding the marinade.  Place the steak on a grill rack.  Grill, uncovered, over medium-hot coals for 25 to 30 minutes for medium rare to medium.  Remove the steak to a cutting board.  Let stand for 3 to 5 minutes.  Cut diagonally across the grain into thin strips.  Serve with roasted potatoes.

Yield:  4 servings
