After thumbing through several websites I finally found what I was looking for. My wife and I had planned a pot luck pool party for our fellow co-workers. As part of the menu I was going to make taco truck style asada tacos with all the trimmings. I followed this recipe to the letter with the exception of the 1 cup of water which I substituted with 1/2 cup of lime juice and lemon juice for a more citrus taste. I have to admit this was by far the most amazing tacos ever,our guest replenished thier plates over and over and with every trip flowed the complements. For anyone who wants to impress the most critical palates this recipe is a must try.

We gave the carne asada marinade a shot tonight, and even our most avid complainer about everything liked it! It was really a hit. The family wants me to use it again when I bbq our carne asada. Thanks for the recipe!

i made this for cinco de mayo 2010 and it was great!!! I actually set aside some non-contaminated marinade and once finished grilling the skirt steak I let it rest for 5 min then chopped it up and put it in a pan on low heat an added the marinade. then served it on corn tortillas with onions and cilantro.

Great Recipe! However, if you omit the water, and add one medium onion, one bell pepper, and 2 jalapenos, seeds and all, then puree the entire mixture, the flavor quotient goes WAY UP! The water contained in the veggies more than makes up for the cup of water taken out. Also, just for flair, I like to add a little tequila, 1/4 cup or so. This part might sound weird but slice it up, and serve in a burrito with some pico de gallo, cheese, sour cream, and french fries and you have an insanely good meal. Anyone from SoCal knows what I mean…we call it the California Burrito

This was also done in the crockpot with a pork roast. Omit your oil if your roast is fatty. Other than that, follow it to the letter and cook overnight on low. shred your roast with some forks like pulled pork sandwiches, put in soft flour tortillas, and add taco fixins and YUM! I have also marinaded thin beef steaks with this for a couple of hours and it is delicious! Pair it with some plain cheese enchiladas, and it is just a great meal. I have shared this recipe with coworkers who have made it in the crockpot and it is a no fail recipe.

The flavors are fantastic!

We cooked the meat over high heat on a BBQ, about 6-7 minutes on each side. Then let the meat rest for 10 minutes. The center was very pink, but that’s okay. When we re-warm it in a skillet, it will crisp up the meat.

Thanks for sharing a great recipe!

Delicious! However, I let it marinate for about 30 hours. Next time I’ll go a little longer even.
