I have a recipe I use all the time...

and was amazed at how close it was to the same taste at HC Monterey.

You must start with skirt steak. This takes 2 days. First day, sprinkle Cajun spice (I know sounds gross). We use Louisiana Fish Fry Products on both sides of the steak. Put in either a ziplock bag or a plastic container and let sit overnight in the fridge. Next day. Pour Italian Dressing over the top, turn meat and add some to the top: half way through the day, turn the meat over. Just before cooking slice the meat on the diagonal as thin as possible and grill quickly to the desired: rare, medium rare, etc. We purchased a solid cast iron grill to go inside our BBQ, but noticed at HC Monterey they were just doing it on a regular BBQ grill directly over the flames.

I couldn't believe that this actually worked. We got the recipe from our friend JR in Cozumel after he served it for dinner one evening. I somehow think it's cheating; but dang it; it works.
