Method

Marinating the Steak

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Flank Steak

    Place the flank steak in a resealable plastic bag and pour the marinade over it. Seal the bag and massage the marinade into the meat. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for better flavor.

Preparing the Ribs

  1. 3

    Season the Ribs

    Rub the beef ribs with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Ensure they are evenly coated.

  2. 4

    Preheat the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  3. 5

    Grill the Ribs

    Place the seasoned ribs on the grill. Cook for about 3-4 hours, turning occasionally, and basting with BBQ sauce during the last 30 minutes.

Grilling the Asada

  1. 6

    Grill the Flank Steak

    After marinating, remove the flank steak from the bag and discard the marinade. Grill the steak for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.

  2. 7

    Rest the Steak

    Once grilled, let the flank steak rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing against the grain.

Serving the Dish

  1. 8

    Prepare Accompaniments

    Slice the Mexican onion and warm the flour tortillas on the grill for about 1 minute on each side.

  2. 9

    Plate the Meal

    On a large platter, arrange the grilled ribs and sliced flank steak. Serve with guacamole, pico de gallo, sliced Mexican onions, and warm flour tortillas on the side.
