Brian's taco thread gave me the idea for skirt steak fajitas.

I marinated the skirt steak in lemon, lime, and orange juice. Along with a little cummin, garlic , Maggie seasoning, Worcestershire sauce some red wine vinegar and a blob of honey overnight. Then the morning of the cook I poured the marinade over the bell's, pablano's and onions.

I fired up a bunch of Royal Oak lump on the Weber kettle, when they were white hot I tossed the old stainless steel Weber wok on the coals..
Man this thing gets insanity hot. I cooked the beef about half way then removed it to cook the veggies. When the veggies were almost done I tossed the meat back on to finish it up.

Sorry I don't even try to make pertty plate shots. I am all about the yaste of food nit the looks. Looks have never been an issue for people eating my food.

Ill try to get these in the right order vut doubt it will turn out correctly. LOL.

These turned out really freak'in good. The meat was super tender and the veggies were still nice and crisp. (I hate over done veggies in fajitas.

Thank you, it was even better tonight as leftovers.
As for the plates themselves, they are my mother in-laws. I'm more of a Fiesta ware kinda guy.:emoji_joy::emoji_joy::emoji_joy:
 
Oh ya baby!! That looks really good Dan. Very well done sir and I'd be a happy camper sitting down to a platter full of that.

Thank you guy's.

The only thing I would do different is not add the lemon and lime juice to the marinade I'd wait until the day of the cook.

By adding it the night before, the acid kinda cooked the meat in the refer...OOP'S!!!:emoji_laughing:
