A few weeks ago I was at one of the Mexican carnicerias near me to get some last minute Cilantro when I noticed skirt steak for $6.49. On a whim I got 2#. Of course, when I got home I asked myself "What were you thinking?". It was sliced thin for Fajitas and such and I'm really not much of a Fajita fan. I figured I'd use it for something.
While surfing the recipe sites last week for skirt steak recipes I came across a Korean style marinade and a little light bulb blinked on! It's thin, so it can be rolled!
So here we go:
Of course I had to play with the recipe
I let it soak for about 18 hours. Put some butter on it and chopped garlic, shallots and jalapeno strips.
Rolled up, tied and skewered
And into the smoker. I figured resting the skewers across a pan would let heat and smoke get all around and catch the juices...
After about 2 1/2 hours at 230 to 260 the mid-sized one hit 150IT. (Hickory wood).
Basted with juices in the pan, they were good to go!

Thanks for looking!

(btw, I had a hell of a time posting this. The pics kept coming up out of order. Burned up the preview button!)

Thanks,NB!
It's good, but it needs a sauce, even though it's not at all dry. I just drizzled a little Teriyaki on it last night, but I picked up some Korean BBQ sauce today for leftovers tonight.
If I do it again, I'll bump up the Cayenne and do away with the Fish Sauce...

Oh Hell Yeah! :icon_twisted:
Mose, that pic right there is money, very nice, very nice indeed.
:points1:

Gonna have to try this real soon.
But I think I'll go more Mexican, marinate in lime juice and garlic, and then stuff'em with chiles, rice, beans and cheese.
And Mesquite, some nice mesquite smoke to give'em that kick.

Hey, thanks, Chile!
Yeah, I saw a version using the lime treatment and it looked really good (They called it Columbian inspired), but I had all the ingredients on hand for this.
AllRecipes has a Philly Cheese Steak skirt rollup that I'm leaning towards....
