If you have time to marinate it for at least an hour in the fridge....
1/2 cup red wine (not cooking wine, or blah table wine -- wine that you'd actually drink)
1/2 cup oil
4 Tbl molasses (you can use honey, but molasses tastes a lot more rich)
3-4 cloves of fresh garlic, minced
2 Tbl Steak Seasoning (I like McCormick Montreal Steak Seasoning -- but if you've got another favorite, by all means)
Depending on how you like your steak, you can add a lil more salt & pepper, but with the seasoning, you could omit it.
--Mix it together with a whire whisk... the molasses might be a bitch -- amalgamate to the best of your ability
--Marinate in the refrigerator for at least an hour
--After you marinate it a bit, the wine will have added a color to the steaks. Sprinkle a lil more of your steak seasoning, then throw on the grill.
*Great with Roasted Potatoes:
Slice up some little red potatoes, or those lil golden ones and throw into a bowl.
Sprinkle olive oil into it, and mix around with your hands just to coat the potatoes.
Then throw in that same steak seasoning and mix around to lightly coat and season the oiled potatoes.
Put it in a baking dish lined with foil, and loosely seal the ends of the foil leaving a fat air pocket inside (to give it space to steam up, but leaving a vent at the same time. Bake it at 350 degrees until the potatoes are tender (takes a while, maybe like 45 to an hour)
If you want it browned a lil more afterwards, turn up the heat to 400, and open the foil to expose the potatoes and burn em to how you like it.
