Carne asada with a little kick.

2 lb. flank steak 
1/2 c tequila
1/4 c lime juice
1/4 c lemon juice
1/4 c orange juice
4 cloves garlic, crushed
1 md. onion, chopped
1 tbsp. cholula or tapatio
salt and pepper
pico de gallo or salsa
guacamole
sour cream
small tortillas

Mix the cactus juice(tequila), and the citrus juices, garlic, onion, hot sauce, salt and pepper and place in gallon freezer bag with the steak. Let marinate for at LEAST 4 hours. over night is better. Grill the steak and slice across the grain or at a bias for wider slices. Serve up like tacos with sour cream, guac, pico or salsa, and warm tortilla (corn or flour, whatever you like).

Bear,

I just happend to have some of these defrosting for cooking tomorrow, so I made up your recipe and I will post tomorrow how it turns out.  There won't be any Guac though, I am not a guac guy.. ;)

Looking forward to trying this one out, should be tasty...

If God wanted us to be Vegetarians, why did he make animals out of meat??

Bear,

Wow, that was fantastic....I think I may have used too much garlic (Is that possible??), but it did come out great.  I grilled them up just for 3 minutes on each side, then sliced them like you said, they were perfect.  Wrapped them in Flour tortillas with some ranch (Sour cream and ranch mix), pico and onions and they were mouth watering.

The wife and kids all loved them, the mix I had them in all night was certainly causing some drooling around here today, so the anticipation was high.

Thanks for the suggestion, I will certainly have to try more of your recipes if they all turn out this good.

Keep them coming.

It's hard for me to use too much garlic. I guess I am the same school as Emeril when it comes to garlic. However most dishes that I cook that need a potent garlic flavor, I will roast or saute the garlic first till carmelized sightly to extract tyhe flavor and leave out the bitterness. Also another trick to gentler garlic is to split the clove and remove the germ whcih is the thing in the middle of the clove.

Bear,

Don't get me wrong, I too love garlic and am of the same mindset that you can never have too much garlic. 

Everything I cook, I add garlic to, so we are on the same wave length.

The meal was fantastic...Keep the great recipes coming...

Bear, Since you are asking... I would like to have a really good Southern one, something maybe cajun or with a bit more spice or kick to it, slow cooked preferably... ;)

I know this was put up a long time ago, but i am just getting around to trying it tomorrow. I'm hoping it's as flavorful and wonderful as it sounds. Been craving some good carne lately.
