APL Fajita Cut

So in "Serious Barbecue" (Page 143), APL states that nothing makes "better fajitas than flank steak". But the pictures on page 145 clearly show skirt steaks. I want to follow the recipe exactly but I'm not sure what cut to use. Any ideas?

    Either work for me as fajitas, but flank steak is a bit superior as it is usually more tender and fattier.  Either will make great fajitas.

    I feel a whole lot more like I do now than I did when I got here.

    I agree either should work fine. The precvious recipe on the book is skirt steak and they are similar. I have done the recipe twice with flank and it is gooooooood.

    Which came first the chicken or the egg?  I egged the chicken and then I ate his leg.

    I'm on the other side of this one- I think skirt steak is a much more flavorful and tender cut. I much prefer it over the flank. But either way you can't go wrong
