How to grill a skirt steak

Chef Clint Jolly hits the grill with some tips and tricks on cooking lean, thin cuts like skirt, flank, flat iron, etc.

[@slybattery]

I like that this cuts right to the point and doesn't go into some long diatribe about the history of skirt steak or whatever.

[@taylorh.3484]

Cuts right to the point…like a steak knife!

[@hyperionorion1733]

The name "skirt steak" for the butcher's cut of beef diaphragm has been in use since at least the 19th century. The cut is defined as extending to the 10th rib in the early 20th century. It was formerly considered a less commercially mass-salable cut in America, hence its use for fajitas by the vaqueros in Texas.

Dude. That's a great video. I'm doing Skirt and Hanger tonight on the Weber w/ weber coals. Cant wait

[@marcscott3690]

Great video brother. Short, informative and to the point. I watch Malcolm Reed, Chef Tom, Pitmaster X, Chuds bbq and others. Good videos, but some people don't have time to watch 15 or 20 minutes of grilling. Great tips and information. You sure deserve more subscribers. I'm new one. From one griller to another, good luck man and keep it up. Thank you

[@azik093]

8-10 minutes will burn it to a crisp! Just done this today and my peace was half a kilo and thicker. Granted it was room temperature by the time it got to a grill. However I kept it about around 2 minutes on each side and it came out medium. I was contemplating actually keeping it for only 2 minutes on each side. However I did it in weber charcoal grille.

[@joesalemi2414]

Is that and inner or outer skirt steak?

[@avega2792]

Inner. You can distinguish inner from outer because the inner is flat and wide, as opposed to the outside that is about half as wide.

[@judichristopher4604]

[@jamescallis3910]

Looks like you may have gotten the bad cut of skirt steak. There is inside skirt and outside skirt. Inside cut run the edge of rib cage and outside is the diaphragm muscle. It is the outside skirt steak that is tender, juicy and delicious. The Inside Cut is not worth it. You may pay a pretty penny for the outside cut, but it is way worth it. Marinage it for a long time in a Greek marinade and serve it topped off with an au Jus and it is the bomb. Remember outside is outstanding and inside is just indecent to eat.

[@chewydadbacca1396]

James Callis how can u tell the diff when Buyin?

[@jamescallis4532]

@@chewydadbacca1396 Hey thanks for asking. If it is a vacuum sealed product it should be labeled. If it is from the butcher in your grocer and not labeled, ask the butcher; however, good luck finding Outside cut of Skirt Steak in your average grocery store. I get mine from a real old fashioned butcher shop and get it to order and not off the shel and I also have a membership to Restaurant Depot (that supplies restaurants) and will get the cut in bulk. Aldi carries it on the shelf but it is the inside cut.

And your “super-hot” 500 degree grill completely cools down while you’re peddling your goofy little meat handling tool that’s so short you’ll singe all the hair off your wrist. Leave the lid closed unless you’re doing something beneficial inside the grill.
