How To make Carne Asada On A Pit Boss Pellet Grill
Description
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!
