Logged some overtime today and made it home after the family had eaten lunch.

Rummaged around in the garage fridge and discovered a bargain bin skirt steak I'd grabbed last week from the DoD Commissary for about $4. Broke out some Naturiffic Q-Salt, and fired up the new 26inch kettle.

Went hot and fast over the coals, then just about 5 minutes of indirect to bring up the IT to about 125-130F.

While she rested, I sautéed some onion in bacon fat in the cast iron skillet. Then, I sliced the steak against the grain and broke it down into smaller bits & bites. Into the pan with the lot!

I warmed a sub roll in the toaster oven, applied a bit of Duke's Mayo down the center... a couple of slices of American Cheeeez... and shoveled in the meat/onion mix.

A quick wrap in foil to keep the juices from going EVERYWHERE.... and I got down to business.

This is the best idea I've had all day!

Y'all have a great Saturday! Please be safe and keep the thin blue rolling as best you can.
 
I'll be honest - Munchkin saw what was on the counter and asked for this for dinner.

She destroyed a half-sized sammich and I made the other half disappear. :noidea:
 
I was about to ask where mine went, but as long as Munchkin got it, I can live with that. You made one killer lunch there, brother!
 
I may have asked this before, but in case I haven't: how would you feel about adopting a middle aged man? Just curious.
