Grilled Beef Oh-So-Tender-loin

Prep time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 50 - 60 minutes
Serves: a lot of people ;-)

Marinade: (mix well)
  • 1 C. veg oil
  • 3/4 C. soy sauce
  • 2 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 Tbsp dry mustard
  • 1 Tbsp salt
  • 1 C. dry red wine
  • 3 Tbsp parsley flakes
  • 1/3 C. lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp garlic salt
  • 1 Tbsp pepper
Use whole beef tenderloin. Trim any skin off the meat; marinade all day (at least 8 hours). Save sauce for basting during cooking.
Preheat grill on HIGH until its very hot.
Grill 7 minutes on high with lid down. Turn heat to medium. Turn loin 1/4 turn and grill for 7 minutes per side, basting meat each time. Continue to turn and baste for 50 - 60 minutes, until cooked through. Remove from heat, let stand 10 minutes covered in foil before slicing.

This is our family's traditional Christmas Day meal. We love it and look forward to it all year!
