Churrasco Taco

I don’t eat beef that often but when I do, it’s usually grilled in some form. We had a beef tenderloin in the freezer that I took out and thawed. Then I made a chimichurri marinade based on this recipe: http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_29257,00.html

I cut the beef tenderloin into 6 strips then pounded them to 1/4 inch thickness and marinated them for about 6 hours. Here they are grilling on the gasser.

They were great just chopped up and eaten on their own. It’s a really good marinade but I think the beef tenderloin didn’t need to sit for 6 hours, especially with all that vinegar.

We couldn’t finish it all that night, so I made tacos and quesadillas on another day. Here’s my taco with jack cheese and homemade salsa. Mmmm. I could have had another but I ran out of tortillas 🙁

Aloha, Nate
