These are 2 cuts that I'd like to try, but have not. Which cut would you recommend, and how should I cook it? Thanks.

    Morning Borders,
    With flank steak: pound it out a bit until it gets thin enough to roll up.
    Lay it on about 6 slices of bacon on foil.
    Sprinkle on some wine vinegar, sage & oregano.
    Add rows of bell pepper/smoked gouda/carrot/sausage/boiled eggs all sliced thin & length wise.
    Roll everything up & twist the ends of the foil & poke a bunch of holes.
    Grill indirect for about 1 1/2 hours @ about 350.
    Tasty.
    Cheers,
    bruce [p]

    Borders,[p]We do skirt steak quite often. Sometomes with a rub (Dizzy Pig Red Eye Express works well), and sometimes marinated (Teryaki is a favorite in our house),[p]I sear it fou 2 minutes at about 600 degrees per side, then dwell for 2-4 minutes depending on thickness and youe preference. Good stuff![p]Smokey

    Borders,
    FAJITAS!!!! Check out Alton Brown's recipe on www.foodtv.com. It's the show named "Raising The Steaks". I've done them several times his way and they are awesome.[p]TNW

  • Borders,
    For flank steak I rub it with oil and sprinkle on garlic powder,
    celery salt and onion powder and grill to medium rare. Then serve
    topped with warmed salsa.
    For the skirt steak I marinate in italian dressing with some
    lemon juice to tenderize. Then they get the garlic powder, onion powder and celery salt and grill at medium high (400-425) temps. Gotta serve with hash browns and scrambled eggs!
