I can’t remember the last time I did a skirt steak. I went
to my butchers this am and all they had was a frozen one. I ask for a small one
and they had a one pound one so thought I could get it marinated and thawed by
6:00 for supper. I was going to do kabobs with it. My marinade was from Michael
Symon, white balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, a little dried rosemary, Penzey’s
roasted garlic, and a pinch of red pepper flakes. I got it in the marinade at
11:00 am and in the fridge. It was still frozen but hoped I could get it
unrolled, cut and back in the marinade by 3:00 pm.
I did some grass trimming and at 3:00 I checked the skirt
steak I had turned once and it started to unfold. I helped it by doing in the
microwave, two minutes on power 3. It was just enough I got it unfolded and cut
into 6 strips for the kabobs and back in the marinade.
My side was going to be a cauliflower steak seasoned with
Penzey’s sandwich sprinkle and topped with some Sargento’s 4 State shredded
cheddar at the end. I planned to smoke it on my Traeger for 45 minutes and then
sear on the Weber Spirit Grillen Grates after the kabobs were done.
I cut the steak from the center of a head of cauliflower;
sprayed it with a little olive oil, seasoned and on the smoker at 250 deg. I
made up my kabobs; patting dry and sprayed with a little olive oil ready to go
on my Weber gas grill. The cauliflower had been in about 20 minutes and upped
the temp to 280 deg.
I had my Weber heating up to 400 deg. and some dark clouds
were in the north then heard thunder. When the cauliflower had been on for 45
minutes I brought the kabobs out and on the Grillen Grates; it was sprinkling
rain. I decided to just let the cauliflower finish on the smoker. I did the
kabobs about 4 minutes per side and then removed and tented with foil. I added
the cheese to the cauliflower and took the kabobs inside. In about 2 minutes
the cheese was melted so took inside and served.
