GRILLED COFFEE AND COLA SKIRT STEAK
Two great drinks equals one fantastic marinade for skirt steak, the juiciest and most flavorful piece of meat you can put on a grill. It's smoky and subtly sweet. The flavors are balanced perfectly with the bitterness of the coffee in the grill marks. I really hope you'll give this a try.

Steps:
- Place garlic into a nonreactive bowl and whisk in cola, coffee, rice vinegar, ketchup, black pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, rosemary, and hot sauce until thoroughly combined.
- Unroll the skirt steak and cut into 6-inch lengths with the grain, using a kitchen scissors. Submerge the meat totally in the marinade; place a piece of plastic wrap onto meat and marinade surface. Marinate 8 to 12 hours in refrigerator or overnight.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
- Remove meat from marinade; save the marinade. Pat meat thoroughly dry with paper towels. Season both sides of meat with salt and cayenne pepper to taste.
- Pour marinade into a saucepan over medium heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl.
- Grill meat on the preheated grill until steak pieces are still pink inside and meat has good grill marks, about 4 minutes per side. Place thin cooked pieces onto thicker pieces of meat to prevent thin ones from overcooking. When the surface of the meat looks shiny and wet from juices being forced up to the surface, the meat is medium-rare to medium in doneness. An instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of a piece should read 125 to 130 degrees F (52 to 54 degrees C).
- Remove meat to a platter and let rest for at least 5 minutes before slicing thinly across the grain to serve. Drizzle servings with reduced coffee-cola marinade.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of meat: Skirt steak is a thin, flavorful cut of beef that is perfect for marinating. It is important to choose a skirt steak that is at least 1 inch thick, as thinner steaks will overcook quickly.
- Make sure the marinade is flavorful: The marinade is what gives the skirt steak its flavor, so it is important to make sure it is flavorful. Use a combination of acids, such as lemon juice or vinegar, and spices, such as garlic, onion, and cumin.
- Marinate the skirt steak for at least 30 minutes: The longer you marinate the skirt steak, the more flavorful it will be. However, do not marinate the steak for more than 24 hours, as the acid in the marinade can start to break down the meat.
- Cook the skirt steak over high heat: Skirt steak is a thin cut of meat, so it is important to cook it over high heat so that it cooks quickly and evenly. Cook the steak for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is cooked to your desired doneness.
- Let the skirt steak rest before slicing: Once the skirt steak is cooked, let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the steak, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Coffee-marinated skirt steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The marinade, made with coffee, garlic, and spices, infuses the skirt steak with a rich, flavorful taste. The steak is then grilled or seared until cooked to perfection. Serve the coffee-marinated skirt steak with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, grilled vegetables, or a simple salad.
