Mexican Steak Tacos with Steak Marinade Recipe!
This post brought to you by CHA! by Texas Pete. All opinions are 100% mine.
My husband and I love authentic Mexican food. It’s our favorite and we’ve learned to master making it the authentic way over the years. It’s definitely not the ground beef tacos I grew up with! It’s so much better. While we love going out to eat, it gets expensive so we’ve mastered making authentic Mexican steak tacos at home. It’s not at all difficult and once you eat these you will never go back to the Americanized version of tacos!
You’ll want to marinate flank steak overnight or at least 3 hours in the fridge before grilling it. I made a fantastic marinade using garlic, onion, jalapeño, cilantro, kosher salt, lime juice, orange juice, lemon juice, CHA! by Texas Pete, and olive oil. Mix it all together in the food processor, dicing the dry ingredients first and then adding the liquid ingredients and pulsing.
Pour over the meat and marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight. If you can’t find flank steak near you then you can use any cut of steak you like. Use a meat tenderizer to pound it flat.
Then bring your meat to room temperature (about 30 minutes) and grill over medium high heat until cooked how you like it. For these tacos we used some of our grass fed beef from the freezer and didn’t have any flank steak on hand. This works well too, just be sure to slice it thin after it cooks. Be sure to let it rest before cutting and cut against the grain or chop into small pieces.
Serve on corn tortillas that have been warmed in a skillet and slightly browned. Top with Queso Fresco cheese (find it in the dairy section), CHA! by Texas Pete sauce, Cilantro, lime wedges, guacamole, and pico de gallo.

If you haven’t heard of CHA! Sriracha sauce by Texas Pete yet that’s because it is a fairly new product.

Texas Pete CHA would be could on some chicken wings.
They have a ton of great recipes on their site. One of them is a bacon wrapped meatloaf. In our house we make a lot of casseroles. I think this would be good incorporated into those. I have been seeing sriracha all over the place, but have never tried it. I guess I am not entirely sure of how I would use it until I know what the flavor would be.

Finding it hard to balance my studies and personal life, I looked for help with my term paper. That’s when I came across term paper helper. The website was straightforward, and they offered bonuses for new clients, which made it easier on my wallet. I was surprised by how fast and professional the service was, and the quality of the work was top-notch. It was exactly what I needed to finish my paper on time.
Hi folks, I caught a late-night ad in a sports livestream that showed a quick clip of the plinko board lighting up winning slots one after another. In Greece, I loved how the interface felt both retro and modern at once. After clicking through, I learned that this casino game offered adjustable risk levels—you can go for tiny steady gains or aim for the jackpot with bigger bets. I invited my sister over to watch my first session, and between our cheers and groans, we had a blast. By the end, I was sold on the thrill and already planning my next round.

I do love the way you have presented this issue and it does present me personally some fodder for consideration. Nonetheless, because of just what I have personally seen, I really wish when the actual commentary stack on that people stay on point and in no way start upon a tirade of some other news du jour. Still, thank you for this outstanding piece and whilst I can not necessarily go along with this in totality, I regard your standpoint.
