    Reelgem,

    You don't need to marinate hanger steaks. Just a rub and grill. They are way more tender and moist than flank or skirt. If you want more flavour, do tequila, lime, garlic and olive oil.

    AZRP,

    Hanger is a wonderful steak. It's often called butcher steak because butchers would often keep them. I think it is the diaphram muscle and there is only one per carcass. There is a membrane that runs through the middle and you can either take it out before or after the cook. They run about 2 to 2 1/2 lbs per. When I cook them the kids just devour them off of the cutting board.

    like steven said, they don't require a marinade, but a really good one is a simple marindae of soy sauce and finely chopped shallots ...then pat them dry prior to grilling. . .and like bente said. .500 degrees direct till 130 internal. .. . .

    randy, besides my specialty butcher (union meats), i'm finding that a lot of whole foods carry them these days (do you have whole foods out there in the desert?) ...
