     1/2  cup           Tequila

With a damp paper towel, wipe steaks; put meat in a 1- gallon plastic food bag.
 Add tequila, oil, pepper, lemon peel, and garlic; seal bag, and turn to mix seasonings.
 Set bag in a bowl; chill at least 1 hour or up to 1 day; turn bag over occasionally
 Drain steaks and place on a grill 4 to 6 inches above a solid bed of hot coals 
(you can hold your hand at grill level only 2 to 3 seconds, or set gas barbecue at this heat).
Turn steaks to brown evenly; for medium-rare (cut to test), cook 12 to 14 minutes.
 Transfer meat to plates; season to taste with salt.
