4. Remove meat from water, place back in the bowl
and add about 2 cups red wine.
5. Allow meat to soak in wine for 20-30 minutes.

7. While meat is in wine, place 1Ú2 cup or so of
olive oil in a skillet, add a few annatto seeds, and an ancho pepper (dried)
or two, unseeded.
8. Heat oil and stir seeds until oil takes on the
color of the annatto seeds, (orange).
9. Keep heat low, allow oil to cool, and brush
over meat while grilling.
- When grill is ready, cook meat about 10 minutes
on one side, then 5 or so on the other, or until meat is done.
