Skirt Steak with Chimichurri sauce
bosco0633
Posts: 383
I have been doing the bbq thing for a little over 6 years now. I have made some really good things, some terrible things and some things that blow me away. Tonight I cooked skirt steak for the first time ever. I have had it twice before at a restaurant, however, I wasn’t prepared for just how awesome it was.
I cooked this at 650° for 3 min a side and seasoned with only sea salt and pepper.
I made up a a batch of fresh chimichurri sauce and drizzled it on the top.
This was easily the best cut cut of meat that I have ever cooked to date. I can’t wait to make it again

Killer!
I love chimichurri on grilled beef. Nice job on the slicing and presentation.
Well done!Living the good life smoking and joking -
looks really good.

This is my go to, and yours looks great. Next time try cutting 4" chunks, turning them 90 degrees, and then slicing like you did, but against the grain. It will be even more tender.

Agree it’s one of the best cuts- very flavorful and I love the chimi idea.
I usually end up doing this cut with an Asian marinade- the carmalized sweetness really complements the meat.
When you give it another run try cutting some on the bias- I think it adds to the tenderness and curious if you agree.

I will definitely be getting some more soon so I will give that a go. It was already so tender, I can’t wait to see how that turns out

Agree with the other comments about slicing, try cutting against grain. Skirt steak is at the top of my list too!

I love that cut and Chimichuri. Great cook. I occasionally make roulade with skirt or flank.

Possibly my favorite steak dish of all. Chimmichurri on Skirt or Flank are in steady rotation.

Love skirt steak, haven't found it since before Father's Day.
I do fajitas - get it to 550, 3 min a side then close the vents for three minutes. let rest, awesome.
I use a store bought Rick Bayless carne asada marinade. So good.
