Marinade and seasoning suggestions wanted

[Steve B]

Hey all. I got myself a 2lb waygu skirt steak from SRF and am looking for a marinade for this puppy.

I also have a 2lb Tri Tip. Also from SRF. Which I have never owned one before. Cain’t find them around my parts. I’m in search of a seasoning for this bad boy as well. BBBR???

Thanks for any and all suggestions.

Your pit brother SteveB.

BBBR or just S&P and garlic powder

[Steve B]

DW. Would you use the same seasoning on both cuts of meat??

[DWCowles]

Probably just S&P and garlic on the skirt steak

Honestly my favorite with skirt steak is just salt and pepper. I've maybe cooked 7 tri tips - all a la Meathead - so I've got nothing for you there.

[JCBBQ]

IMO, skirt has so much flavor you don't need anything but s&p

[Steve B]

Hmmm I’ve Always marinated my skirts.
May have to do a side by side test.
Thanks brother.

Have you looked at Cow Crust for the tri-tip? https://amazingribs.com/tested-recip...arys-cow-crust

Try a Santa Maria style rub for the tri tip. It one of my favorite rubs! This is what i use from another site I frequent.

Santa Maria steak seasoning:
5 Tbs. kosher salt
2 Tbs. fresh-ground coarse black pepper
2 Tbs. granulated garlic
2 Tbs. dried parsley, rubbed in hands to grind finer
4 Tsp. demerara sugar

Coat cold meat with olive oil, and sprinkle steak seasoning on just before smoking. Cook to preferred doneness, I go to 128* or so using 225. Reverse sear and serve. The sweetness the sugar provides is perfect, not to sweet though.

Yup, Can't beat Santa Maria Seasoning. I love what Oak Ridge has put together. I always keep this on hand.

Would you use that for the skirt as well as the tri tip.

[Spinaker]

I would. Or I would make a Mojo for Skirt Steak Carne Asada. Steve B
