I had a flank steak I wanted to grill and decided to do a Carne Asada. Not the cut I would usually use but it came out pretty good.

 
Looks good to me! Almost as good as Willysitos :)

That looks thicker than what I'm used to, I pretty much always get skirt. I saw some flank steak @ RD, i hope to try it soon.
 
Thanks Clint. I usually use skirt steak or flap meat. I'm experimenting with a couple of different marinades and rubs. What I won't do in the name of research 😉
 
JR, that looks outstanding. Great crust, but nicely medium rare in the middle! You must have had some good heat going on!

Skirt is ridiculously priced here, so flank is my go to for carne asada.....haven't done it in a while. Need to change that!

Thanks Rich. I used the Vortex inverted with the large opening facing up. It definitely generated some great heat. Skirt is ridiculously expensive here as well. The flank really did work out well.
 
I cooked it direct over the Vortex with the large end facing up and flipped it every 2 minutes for for 10 minutes then moved it to indirect for about 8 minutes.
 
Beautiful color on both the outside and inside. Love the use of the inverted Vortex.
 
Thanks Barb and Rich. I've never done it with flank before but I was happy with the result. I'll definitely do it again.
