INGREDIENTS

3 LBinner skirt steak
1/2 BOTTLEdale's original marinade
1/2 BOTTLEken's 3 cheese italian dressing

METHOD

01

Throw your steak into a Ziploc bag with the marinade, shake to combine well and remove all air from the bag.

02

Marinate the steak for at least 1.5 hours, no more than 2.

03

Light the grill up until its at 450 on the thermometer.

04

Pat your steak dry (to develop crust) and throw it down on the hot zone, shut the grill immediately.

05

Keep flipping your steak every time the grill get back above 400 (it should be every thirty seconds to a minute).

06

Cook until your steak probes 125 for medium rare (it will come up another 5 degrees).

07

Let the steak rest for 10 minutes.

08

Slice the steak into two manageable pieces. Cut thinly on a bias against the grain, and enjoy!

PIT NOTES

Skirt has a loud grain — if the slices chew tough, you sliced with it, not against it.

Serve with Chimichurri for the best "eating" bite.

Inside Skirt is best for eating because of its deep beefy flavor and chew. Outside Skirt is more tender and best for tacos.
