Here's a little twist on a Mexican street vendor classic, the Carne Asada Taco. Hands down, one of my favorite things to eat anytime of the year. It was during my days living in San Diego where i learned what a real grilled steak taco taste like. Man, I couldn’t get enough of them, especially the ones from our trips down the Baja coast. I always make these for friends and family back in New York as If I was in cooking these in a vendor stall in Mexico. Marinated, grilled, and chopped finely to perfection with all the classic accompaniments. tacos Fresh quartered lime, chopped white onion, cilantro, pickled jalapenos, radishes, pico de gallo, tacos and fresh crumbling cheese. The Donovan’s Ginger-Pineapple IPA works wonders as a marinade here. The natural sugars help create a nice char while the beer helps tenderize and keep it nice and juicy. Just make sure you have plenty of ice cold Cerveza Tecate on hand.
