Flank Steak & Black Bean Tostada

NibbleMeThis

What is better than making a recipe from the Eggtoberfest? Combining two recipes into one dish!

I took TnVolKen's Pepper Sauce and Beer Marinade for flat iron steak and combined it with Bob Quiero's Rev'd Up Black Beans for a great tostada.



After marinating the steak for 4 hours, I made up a batch Bob's Rev'd Up Black Beans



Grilled the steak at 400f for about 4 min a side.



Toasted the corn tortillas



And threw it all together



The full details and recipes are on my blog but you get the idea.

Thanks for the recipes, Bob and Ken! I hope everyone is having a great weekend.

Beautiful as always, Chris. I wish I could join you for lunch, then head down to Neyland to watch the upset! Truthfully, I think the latter is more realistic...

Looks good Chris. Black beans are very versatile. I like to puree mine but I think I'll give yours a shot. Nice pics as well. Are you using a macro lens?

No, it's a 50mm prime (Nikon brand). Nice fast glass, apertures as low as 1.8f. It's my favorite lens for shooting food. About $130 from B & H.
