Everyday Steak Tacos | Rick Bayless Taco Manual
Say it’s Friday night and you want to do something a little special. Not “dinner party” or birthday special, but at least a feel-good exclamation point on a finished week. That’s the time for these steak tacos. All meat is special, but the cut I’m calling for here is more accessible than what you’d serve for a big steak cookout.
Here's the recipe: www.rickbayless.com/recipe/everyday-steak-tacos/
Even though many grilled steak taquerias in Mexico simply season the meat with salt, there are favorite places across the country that add more flavor. Usually it’s something with a lot of umami like one of the Knorr seasoning products (here I’m using a little Worcestershire and soy), maybe a little tang and spice, almost always a little something sweet. That’s the approach in this topical marinade-the kind you splash on and go right to grilling. Just know that the finished steak-and-onion filling is as delicious from a grill pan as it is from a grill.
I know you’ll balk at the quantity of garlic, but this marinade-very close to the one we’ve used on Frontera’s skirt steak tacos for nearly 4 decades-is just about perfect. We blanch the garlic to take away its harshness and bring out its natural sweetness, then we blend it with the other ingredients to a wonderfully clingy smoothness that coats the meat beautifully. To make this truly “everyday,” buy peeled garlic-just make sure that, for true flavor, your peeled garlic has no preservatives or additives.

We find Rick and his daughter, Lanie, at the Mexico City’s colorful Sonora Market, an emporium of medicinal herbs and the best place in town to buy cazuelas, the beautifully rustic earthenware cooking and serving casseroles that define a whole class of stews and taco fillings. We tend to think of taquerías for their familiar grilled and griddled fillings, like carne asada. But, Rick explains, t...

    Rick: love your recipes, so this is a personal message of encouragement: Pork fat... (I'll get there...) i see catholic mary in your background... The Bible does not exalt mary to the level of worship; she was a mere creature under her Creator Jesus and ... she is dead; unconscious. The Bible, however, does make a difference between clean and unclean meat and if we eat pig we will die faster and be less healthy. Peter's vision 100% underlines new-testament health laws, which were not nailed to the cross; the handwriting of ordinances were. The difference is vital because Jesus warned us over and over that one word from the Bible is the difference between eternal life and death.

    As a long-time Qstoves user, I was a little skeptical about switching to Asmoke. But oh boy, was I wrong! The Asmoke pellet grill has completely transformed my grilling experience. The digital controller allows precise temperature control - something I didn't even know I needed until I had it. The wood pellet flavors have added an entirely new dimension to my food, and I am loving it! It's portable, so I've been able to take it on camping trips, and the fact that it can be battery-powered is a game-changer. Also, the fact that it's environmentally friendly with wood pellet use is a major plus. I don't think I'll ever go back to traditional grilling. #Asmoke.

    That’s a lot of lime juice! If you’re the kind of person who drinks one margarita and enjoys it, tolerates the second and can’t deal with a third one, it’s going to be too much lime juice for you too. I made another recipe for steak tacos on this channel with a lot of lime juice and the tacos quickly became overwhelming. The first one was fine, the second one was pushing it and I didn’t want a third one. I would recommend using no more than 1/3 that amount of lime juice the first time if you’re unsure about your tolerance.
