My long time, radio colleague (I’m talkin’ 25 years), Rick Healy (afternoons on Q97), mentioned he barbecued a tasty skirt steak the other night. So…
Beer Marinated Grilled Skirt Steak
2 lbs. skirt steak
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (2 limes)
Kosher salt & fresh ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup beer
5 garlic cloves, minced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1.Sprinkle steaks with lime juice then season with salt and pepper, to taste. Let it set for about 20 minutes.
2.Meanwhile, combine beer, garlic and olive oil; pour over steaks and marinate a minimum of one hour.
3.Heat outdoor grill or indoor grill pan over high heat until hot.
4.Grill steaks 5 to 7 minutes, in total, for medium rare, up to 10 minutes, for well done.
5.Cut on the bias against the grain. This steak makes great taco meat!
