easy and delicious please!

Answer 1

There are a number of excellent skirt steak rubs and marinades in the Weber Big Book of Grilling. Most recipies recommend grilling skirt steak quickly over a direct-high fire.

To calculate grilling times we use the cookout calculator at charcoalbob.com. Just enter the thickness of your skirt steak, the type of grill (gas or charcoal), the desired doneness, etc. and it will give you precise instructions for how to grill skirt steak.

After grilling, allow the skirt steak to stand for about 5 minutes to keep it juicy, then slice on the bias of the grain.

Answer 3

Marinate it. They dry it a bit. Heat the a pan on hot (be careful) with no oil. Coat the steak in salt and pepper. Drop it in the pan and sear for a minute or two on each side. Pull it out while medium rare. Let it rest for a couple minutes and slice it against the grain in thin strips. Cut with the grain and it will be tough.

You have to cook this steak rare and marinate it, or it will be tough. If you cut withthe grain, it will be tough no matter how you cook it.
