INGREDIENTS: 

3 pounds Certified Angus Beef® sirloin flap orskirt or 2 flank steaks 

1 cup tamarind concentrate 

2 tablespoons molasses 

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce 

8 canned serrano peppers, thinly sliced into rounds 

2 teaspoons ground coriander 

2 teaspoons ground cumin

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. In a small mixing bowl, combine tamarind, molasses, Worcestershire, peppers, coriander and cumin to make a marinade. Divide in half; reserve one part in refrigerator. 
  2. Cut raw steaks with the grain in 3-to-4-inch wide pieces. Place steaks and remaining marinade in a zipper-locking plastic bag, removing air and uniformly coating steaks. Refrigerate at least 6 hours; overnight preferred. 
  3. Preheat grill to high. Pat steaks dry and sear on each side to develop a good char (2-3 minutes per side). Baste with reserved marinade. Transfer to cooler side of grill to finish to medium rare or your desired doneness. 
  4. Rest on a cutting board 5 minutes before slicing thinly against the grain to serve.

Prep time 6 hours (including marinade); Serves 8.
