On the grill

Skirt is thinner and looser-grained than flank, so it cooks faster and takes a marinade even better. Screaming hot direct heat, 2–3 minutes a side.

It is easy to overshoot because it is so thin. Have the thermometer ready before you start.

Seasoning

In the grill

280 °C+direct

As hot as the grill will go. Minutes a side, and never walk away.

Smoke it with oak, hickory or mesquite.
