Hey all...

So, looking for ideas for dinner I went over to Albertson's Market and perused the meat section...I thought I was gonna use some slice tri-tip that they had. Found an almost 3lb flank steak "reduced for quick sale" (it was 1/2 off and still looked healthy) I immediately grabbed it and promptly headed to produce. Grabbed an avocado, a tomato and some lime juice (had the rest).

Made a quick chili/lime marinade, tenderized the heck out of her (I injected some too as it was at 4:15pm) and placed in fridge and let it marinade. Placed it on the grill at about 5:40pm. Set it at low heat and let it cook till IT was 140*...raised temp to "high" for about 5 minutes each side to caramelize it a bid. Pulled it off, wrapped in foil and let it sit about 10min. Wife was now home and hungry...

Here's the Marinade (Simple recipe: Lime Juice, EVOO, Apple Vinegar, beef base, chili powder, onion powder, garlic powder, molasses and a little Lawry's)

Here's the Q-VIEW

Here's the Plated shot.

Here's some EVOO rubbed onion I threw on the grill along with the FS.

It was very tasty and it wasn't smoked...

Excellent!

Rather than carne asada, had me thinking fajitas?

Shows what food porn can do to the mind of an old fart? 

Good luck and good smoking!
