Really simple: 1/3 cup veg oil 1/3 cup lime juice 1/3 cup orange juice 3 cloves of minced garlic
Let the meat marinate for about 6 hours, then season with salt, pepper, cumin and grill medium. Let rest for 10 minutes and cut against the grain.

I just don't buy flank steak. Too expensive for an inferior cut of meat. Years ago they practically gave them away. I use left over grilled rib eye, strip, or sirloin cooked to medium rare. Slice it thinly, put it in a hot skillet and season as you like with onions and peppers. Left over brisket is great too as well as for tacos.

I use flap meat from Costco with Bolner's fajita seasoning. Best fajitas I've had anywhere. I use flap meat from Costco with Bolner's fajita seasoning. Best fajitas I've had anywhere. Same here from Costco. Not sure about the seasoning. I use soy pineapple and orange juice

Good round steak cheaper and better, flank steak cheapest cut of meat from a cow I thought that lining of the chest called TRIPE was. I suppose any scrap meat is fit for fajitas.

with skirt steak, ask the butcher to run it through the tenderizer, take it home and trim the membrane off. I marinate in lime juice and soy sauce. grill and slice cross grain into pencil width pieces

My opinion. The best beef fajita meat comes from Ben E Keith. I have cooked a ton of it and it is as tender as there is. It is not cheap, but it is the best. As always though everyone has an opinion. Cheers!!!!

I marinate mine in Italian dressing overnight and as Kattelyn said cook to medium and slice across the grain.
