(Marinade must be at a temperature of 34 to 40 degrees before adding steaks. This will prohibit bacteria growth and possible food borne illnesses.) Note: Pour marinade into container first before adding steaks so steaks can float throughout marinade. Drop 4 top sirloin steaks into marinade. Day 2: Take lid off steaks and stir very well with gloved hands from bottom to top. Day 3: Take lid off steaks and stir very well with gloved hands from bottom to top. Day 4 & 5: Steaks are finished marinating. Steaks must marinate a minimum of 72 hours before being used. Keep steaks in its original container and marinate until you are ready to grill. Day 6: Steaks must be used this day. Discard after this day. (Shelf life: 5 days marinated.) Brush grill with oil swab. Place steak on scrubbed/cleaned/oiled grill flat grates.

Steps:

• Place each piece of steak between 2 sheets of plastic wrap and 1pound until 1/4 inch thick or about the thickness of a beer bottle cap.
• Make the hot pepper paste: In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients and mix well.
• Rub the steak rounds with about 2/3 of this paste and reserve the remainder.
• Grill the steak rounds over high heat for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until they are medium rare.
• Brush liberally with the remaining hot pepper paste.
• Fair warning: I really like hot stuff, and I find this to be awesome. If you don't like hot stuff, don't make this.
