    Carne asada is what you grew up with. Keep the marinade simple and have some tortillas ready to make tacos. The soft ones and some that you leave a little longer to get stiffer and charr. Have some veggies roasting for a salsa, if you have leftover carne that’s getting old use the salsa you made and pour it onto the sliced carne in a sauce pan with diced potatoes. Make some rice on the side and now leftovers seem like a new meal.

    I learned how to cook authentic Mexican flavors in South Texas (Ingleside) while stationed there with the military. I had a neighbor who taught me and also introduced me to his aunts (owned the City Tortilla Factory in Ingleside Texas) who made the Best Tex Mex flavor I have had to this day. It was much different than the flavors of Southern California which was my previous favorite and different to the flavors of Tijuana which I also loved. The flavors matched Harlington and Matamoros, when we lived there, Thanks for bringin a good show to UA-cam, informative, techniques and good-looking food,,, Salud mi Amigo,,,

I said ok but I thought to myself they real must like their ref tacos . Dont get me wrong I love tacos de carne asada & upto that point that's what carne asada was to me. So I waa like why they making such a big deal for it. When i got there i found out the difference lmao. They had pretty much what you had bu also chorizo & beef short ribs. As far as sides they had the usual rice & beans but also they had macaroni salad, potato salad & cactus salad which was basically pico de gallo with cactus it was really good & refreshing.
    Oh yeah the beer they had 2 trash cans with ice one filled with beer the other had sodas

  • @BradYaeger

    While I knew the overall meaning was basically grilled meats , I still equate it with marinated skirt steak after living in San Diego in the 80's . You hit a Robertos or Ramiro's stand and got a carne' asada burrito after surfing and it was the greatest thing ever . Still is! Now it's kind of a fixture on menu's up and down the west coast . I think maybe that happened because if you just said "beef burrito" most Americans at that time would automatically think ground beef .

Next time wrap some onion in foil & toss them on the fire for some time & let the sugars break it down, that is a wonderful addition of flavor that simply just belongs. One more thing, have your butcher hook you up with some corte argentino steak, grill that up along with your flank & compare them, your
