In the uk this cut is called bavette but I think in the USA it’s called flap meat. It weighs 1kg but it was quite a lot thinner than I anticipated, I’m supposed to be grilling it on the bbq tonight but since it’s so thin I’m wondering if it’s still possible to get it a bit pink on the inside? I was thinking maybe 90 seconds a side?

    Yeah, maybe 2 minutes at most. On a grill hotter than the sun.

    Just vaeely & noticeably Seared Over HOT coals 15-20 seconds an inch. Remember ☝🏻 you can cook it more, but never Less!

  3. I like to cut those into strips and marinade in teriyaki sauce.
    Grill a couple mins, max per side on high temp.

    I’d probably cut that down the middle long ways to start so it can get better heat and char on it. I like using adobo to season those and I’d grill it very hot for about 4 minutes total, flipping every minute to encourage flare ups to char it. Rest it 10 mins and slice against the grain

  5. Liquify some sweet onions in the blender and marinate it that for 30 minutes. Hot quick sear, salt pepper cumin garlic, squirt lime juice on it and some fresh cilantro as it’s resting. Slice thin and use for fajitas / tacos / pho / ramen.

    This is my favorite cut of beef.

    Over charcoal, probably less than a min each side until a nice char and then on the cold side for a min or 2.

    2-3 minutes per side, depending on the grill temperature

    Fire down some white oak chunks till they are glowing hot and lay that delicious slab right down on the coals. 1 minute per side. Remove and wrap in heavy aluminum foil for about 10 mins to keep the inside slowly cooking.

    Unwrap, hit with some kosher salt, and eat it right there next to the grill

    High and fast. Maybe 2-3 minutes total. Whatever you’re throwing it on needs to be HOT to get a good crust

  10. All I see is carne asada, how is this new to yall??
