Grilled Lemon Chicken

From Cooking Pleasures magazine

Life member Jeannine Arpin's cooking career began at the age of 12, when she took it upon herself to make dinner for her family every night. Although her first meal wasn't quite perfect, Jeannine fixed the problems and had a great dinner ready the next night. She's perfected her skills and is often asked to make chop suey, chicken and dumplings, and this summery entree.

1/3 cup white distilled vinegar
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons steak sauce
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1 teaspoon salt
1 (3- to 3 1/2-lb.) chicken, cut up
