  • ground chipotle chile pepper0.5 teaspoon
  • ground cumin1 tablespoon

Instructions

  1. 1

    In a small bowl add all spices and blend together.

  2. 2

    Place sirloin cuts on a cutting board and season with dry rub on both sides.

  3. 3

    If you have time, I recommend letting the meat sit and marinade at room temperature before cooking.

  4. 4

    I often suggest 30 minutes.

  5. 5

    Put the meat to the side and begin chopping up all of your taco ingredients: onions, tomatoes and pickled jalapeo peppers.

  6. 6

    Mash guacamole in a small bowl adding a splash of lime juice, garlic powder and salt.

  7. 7

    Cook your taco shells after your taco condiments are ready and set aside in a 250 degree oven to keep warm.

  8. 8

    Top shells with a bit of cheese while in the oven.

  9. 9

    Be sure before putting the meat on the grille that you get your cast iron grill good and hot.

  10. 10

    Place meat on grill and cook for 3-4 minutes turning diagonally and cooking for another 3-4 minutes before turning over and cooking on the other side.

  11. 11

    This will give you great criss-cross grill marks.

  12. 12

    Remove meat immediately and let rest for a few minutes before slicing in 1/4 inch slices across the grain.
