Marinated Skirts

Gator Bait

 
I had 3.5-4 pounds of skirt steaks. I decided to marinate them in Good Seasons Italian dressing. I used a roast garlic infused red wine vinegar and good extra virgin olive oil. I made two batches of the dressing and added a tablespoon of garlic and a tablespoon of my homemade Herbs de Provence to each. I started it marinating Saturday morning and let it ride till I grilled it tonight.



My Herb's de Provence

4 T Thyme
3 T Marjoram
1 T Oregano
1 T Basil
1 t Rosemary ground
1 t Sage ground
1.5 t Anise Seed ground (optional and not traditional)

The egg was set direct, raised and at about 500º with oak chunks for the smoke wood. Two minutes to the side and I checked the internal temperature looking for 120º. Thinner pieces of meat got less time. The meat was cooking faster then expected and is a bit over done but is still very good, tender and tasty. I sliced it very thin across the grain. It will be wonderful in sandwiches!

Sorry for the one poor photo, have a great week All,

Thanks Hoss, I have used the salad dressing before and it makes a very mild marinade, this time I let it soak in for a good spell and you are right, it is YUMMEE!
