<p />I ran into a hunk of premium skirt steak at my local Publix yesterday. It weighed in at 2.5#. I'd like to share a photo and recipe on this cook with you.[p]It sat in a marinade for 4 hours made with 2 tablespoons of Bada fajita powder, 3 tablespoons of Key West lime juice, 1 tablespoon of black bead molassas, and about 8 ounces of CocaCola. The last two ingredients add a little surface sugar which helps give a crust to meat cooked rapidly and at high heat. The coke adds a unique flavor to the meat. No telling what else it does. [p]I seared them for 4.5 minutes on each side with a starting temp of 700 degrees. Ended up with a nice charred crust, and rare inside. Yuuumy!! Some unexpected guests showed up just as we started eating, and they were amazed at the Egg's results.

    Bobby Que,
    Gorgeous. Righteous, from the meat to the salad, all the way down to the nicely backlit well composed photo. And a recipe to boot.[p]My printer is firing up now.
    Nice work!

    Bobby Que,
    That is about the biggest Skirt Steak that I have seen. The results look awesome and I am printing out the recipe as well.[p]As funny side note, I was at a Wild Oats Market on Sunday to try their charcoal. At the meat counter, next to the $4.50/lb Flank Steak was a Fajita Steak (aka skirt steak). It was priced at an amazing $6.50/lb. Normal pricing is $2.50/lb.[p]Skirt Steak Rules!
