Method

Marinade Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a large mixing bowl, combine lime juice, olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, oregano, chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until fully mixed.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Meat

    Place the arrachera ribeye in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the prepared marinade over the meat, ensuring it is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for better flavor.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Prepare the Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.

  2. 4

    Cook the Meat

    Remove the marinated ribeye from the refrigerator and let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before grilling. Place the ribeye on the grill and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until the desired doneness is achieved.

  3. 5

    Grill the Toppings

    While the meat is grilling, place the pineapple slices and onion slices on the grill. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side until they have nice grill marks and are tender.

  4. 6

    Rest the Meat

    Once the ribeye is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Slice and Serve

    Slice the rested ribeye against the grain into thin strips. Serve the meat on warm corn tortillas topped with grilled pineapple, grilled onions, and chopped cilantro.
