Second cook on my new Firedisc, mainly to just continue seasoning it as this would've been doable on the Blackstone 22" griddle as well. I always get carne asada tacos at the Mexican joint we frequent and have been trying to clone them at home. I kind of narrowed down the cut they use to skirt steak, sliced across the grain in 1-2" long sections. Seasoned with salt only, then try to get some crust on them without overcooking and drying them out. The shrimps were treated to Oakridge BBQ Smokey Chile Lime.

They use a slightly chewy flour tortilla that I need to figure out how to replicate, and a hot salsa I haven't quite pinned down. But I'm getting there. The skirt steak came from Aldi's, better price than I can get elsewhere right now and the quality was pretty good.

I've been consistently impressed with the beef from our ALDI's. I find it to have much more flavor than anything from Price Chopper.

Good looking dish! Let me know when you get it figured out, and I'll bring the beer :wink:
