Tonight was a great night to grill. The weather was perfect today and that's always a good day to grill.
Beef is what was on the  menu. 

This marinade was like so many others I've made. It's solid and delicious. I cut the steak into cubes instead of thin strips like they suggest. It was just easier. 

Grilled Skirt Steak Skewers
Recipe from Simply Recipes

Serves 6

• 1/3 c extra virgin olive oil
• 1/3 c soy sauce
• 1/4 c honey
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 T red wine vinegar
• 1-inch piece of ginger, sliced
• 1/2 tsp red chili pepper flakes
• 1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• Other ingredients:
• 1 1/2 to 2 pounds skirt steak, trimmed of membranes and silver skin
• Olive oil for grill grates

Make marinade: Place all marinade ingredients in a small bowl and stir to combine. Set aside.

Cut skirt steak in strips across the grain: Lay the skirt steak horizontally out on a cutting board. 

Place the steak slices in a non-reactive bowl or casserole dish. Toss with the marinade to coat. Chill and marinate for at least 30 minutes or up to 2 hours.

Preheat your grill, whether charcoal or gas, for high-direct heat. While the grill is preheating, thread the marinated skirt steak strips onto your pre-soaked skewers.

When ready to grill, brush the grill grates with olive oil (helps to fold a paper towel, soak the towel in olive oil, and use long handled tongs to hold the soaked paper towel and spread oil on the grates).

Remove from grill and let sit for a few minutes before serving.
