How To make Red's South Texas Fajitas
4 Jalapeno peppers --
Pierced 3 tb Chili powder
1 ts Cayenne pepper
1 8 oz bottle herb and garlic
-oil-based salad dressing 1 cn Beer
preferably Lone
Star 1 1/2 ts Garlic powder
4 sm Mexican limes :
juiced
2 ts Cumin powder
1 lg Onion minced
2 tb Cilantro :
minced
1 tb Worcestershire sauce
1 Bay leaf
3 lb Skirt steak
About twelve to fifteen years ago, fajitas were "discovered." since then, an awful lot of good meat has been wrecked, and skirt steakonce a "grinder" item:
has risen sharply in price. Because skirt doesn't come from a "tender quadrant" of the carcass, some care is needed to turn it into good food. First, it needs to be marinated to tenderize and flavor it. Mix all the ingredients together, except the meat, to make a marinade. Pour over the skirt steak, in a non-reactive container (not metal), cover, and stir occasiionally for six to eight hours. Fajitas can be cooked in several ways. If you have the space, smoke the fajitas for 30 minutes with pure mesquite smoke, and then cook for 4-7 minutes per side over direct heat--mesquite coals being the heat of choice. Baste with the marinade throughout the cooking process. If you need to cook completely over direct heat, then use a fairly slow fire, about like you should use when grilling chicken, and cook, covered if possible, for about 10 - 15 minutes per side, basting with the marinade. Figure about a half pound of meat and 3 to 4 tortillas per person. When slicing fajitas, you'll notice that the grain of the skirt steak all runs the same way. If you'll slice the skirt at a forty-five degree angle to the grain, and hold your knife on a forty-five degree angle as well, you'll find that the fajitas are much more tender! Serve the fajitas with flour tortillas, pico de gallo salsa, guacamole, and cold beer. You'll notice that I didn't say anything about chicken fajitas--that's a contradiction in terms.

A parrillada is a very popular dish across Latin cuisine. It’s a mixture of grilled meats, served on a huge plate with sides and IT. IS. AMAZING.
Almost every parrillada has at least three beef proteins. Today ours are center cut ribs/finger ribs, cross cut ribs (big tablitas), and fajitas. Chicken and sausage is also a must.
A parrillada basically means a bunch of grilled meats, served on a platon, for you and your family and friends to enjoy. Let’s get fired up, get these meats seasoned and start cooking!

Very few plates at a Mexican restaurant grab your attention like a plate of sizzling fajitas. First you hear it, then you smell it…then you wish you ordered that platón instead of the chicken enchiladas.
In this video we’re cooking up Restaurant Style Fajitas. I decided to grab some outside skirts for maximum tenderness, but beware when shopping for them. This particular cut goes fast in stores as restaurants demand such large quantities of it. Either side of skirt will have you eating good either way.
And here is the weekly Pro Tip: Don’t over cook them! Common sense, I know, but you would be surprised how easy these can get away from you. Both the scorching plancha and the sizzling platter can keep the fajitas cooking even more and dry out what would otherwise be delicious and tender meat. Shoot for a medium or even medium-rare before you plate it on skillet to serve.
I always say that BBQ is simple, and although we aren’t on a live fire today the principles still apply. A scorching hot heat source, a great cut of beef and a little technique is all it takes for a dinner that will blow away any one who is lucky enough to chow down.
