The plan was to get either a flank steak or a tri tip to go with grilled veggies and Guacamole. When neither were available, I started to panic and dig thru the caverns of the meat counter looking for anything to suffice
What I found and took a chance on was simply called Carne Asada
It looked and smelled pretty good, and was well seasoned
I started by getting some veggies going
Then went with the meat
While the meat was resting, I toasted off some tortillas- It's pretty cool how they sometimes puff up on the egg
Meat got a fine chop after resting. It was already thin and was fork tender
I normally do not subscribe to pre packaged and seasoned meat. In this situation it worked out really well. Seasoning was really quite good. A little different than I would have done but good nonetheless. The meal was really so easy, it would be a crowd pleaser at a tailgate or on a camping trip. But then again, what isn't a crowd pleaser when it's done on the Egg?
Here is a more detailed story about the cook-
Thanks for looking!

This carne asada looks wonderful and is probably skirt steak by the way it looks. I may run by Safeway and get some of this to try, I'm salivating. Uh. my bad the package reads thinly sliced sirloin.XLBGE & LBGENorth Richland Hills, TX

@EggRacer I had to take a second glance to make sure I had it correct. The first ingredient is Sirloin Flap. Not something I was familiar with but after a google search, it is a quite coveted cut of meat. The flap is something I will be keeping an eye out for more in the future.Proud resident of Missoula, MThttps://www.facebook.com/GrillingMontanahttp://grillingmontana.com
