Last night a set a 2.8Lb flank steak in my fajita marinade and let it sit. I did flip it a couple times overnight.

I fired up the pit with lump then added a piece of Mesquite and Hickory.

After a bit of chopping/slicing it's ready.

I'd commit some serious crimes for a nice piece of flank steak, especially one done like that! I simply refuse to pay the prices they are asking for them in my neck of the woods.

Looks pretty darn good West Coast Chris. Like Chris said flanks are just too expensive around here.

Point for sure
