How to make Carne Asada On The Pit Boss Pro Series 1100. And yes this can be done on a gas grill as well. This is really delicious and easy to make on a Pit Boss Pellet Grill, or any pellet grill! I made Carne Asada burritos and tacos, but there are so many other things to make with Carne Asada. And I used some homemade Pico De Gallo.

Ingredients:

2lbs of Flank Steak or Skirt Steak
1 Bunch of Cilantro
1 Medium White Onion
1 Orange or substitute about 1/2 cup orange juice
1 Lime
1/2 Cup Olive Oil
1 Tbsp New Mexico Red Chili Powder or your favorite
1 Tbsp White Wine Vinegar
2 tsp Minced Garlic
1 tsp Salt
1 tsp Pepper
1 tsp Onion Powder
1 tsp Cumin
1 tsp Mexican Oregano or Regular

Directions:

Rough chop cilantro and onion and set aside
Add ALL other ingredients into a bowl and mix well
Add flank steak to a gallon zip lock bag or in a marinating container
Pour the wet ingredients over the flank steak
Add the chopped cilantro and onion to the bag or container and mix well
Let marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 4 hours. Mixing every hour if you go 4 hours
Heat your grill too 400 degrees
Add your marinated meat and grill for 3 - 4 minutes per side depending on the thickness

Carne Asada can be served as a steak, or slice against the grain for strips. I prefer to dice mine and use it in burritos, tacos and nachos.

For Pico De Gallo just finely dice 1 onion, 1 bunch cilantro, 2 to 4 jalapenos depending on how hot they are. Mix well and squeeze half a lime over it.

Watch the video to see how I do it.

Enjoy!
