I grew up in Southern California and lived on Mexican food. One of my favorite foods was carne asada. It could be purchased from any grocery store. When I moved to a small town in Colorado I found that no store carried it and people always asked me what is Carne Asada? Since I could no longer buy it from the store I made it my mission to come up with the best ever carne asada recipe.
The recipe is great because it is best if you make it the night before and it cooks very fast. This recipe feeds 5-7 people
