Method (preview)

1. 1

   Mix all the ingredients together, except the meat, to make a marinade.

2. 2

   Pour over the skirt steak, in a non-reactive container (not metal), cover, and stir occasiionally for six to eight hours.

3. 3

   Fajitas can be cooked in several ways.

4. 4

   If you have the space, smoke the fajitas for 30 minutes with pure mesquite smoke, and then cook for 4-7 minutes per side over direct heat--mesquite coals being the heat of choice.

5. 5

   Baste with the marinade throughout the cooking process.

6. 6

   If you need to cook completely over direct heat, then use a fairly slow fire, about like you should use when grilling chicken, and cook, covered if possible, for about 10 - 15 minutes per side, basting with the marinade.
