Ingredients

Directions

  1. In a small bowl or 2-cup measure, blend the dry mustard, ground cumin, crumbled bay leaf, and minced garlic until combined.
  2. Add the boiling beef broth to the spice mixture and blend well, mashing any lumps of mustard against the sides of the bowl to create a smooth paste.
  3. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce, cider vinegar, vegetable oil, and hot pepper sauce until fully incorporated.
  4. Cover the bowl and let the marinade cool to room temperature.
  5. Place the skirt steaks in a plastic bag or shallow dish, add the cooled marinade, turn to coat evenly, and marinate for 2 to 3 hours at room temperature, turning occasionally.
  6. Remove the steaks from the marinade and discard any remaining liquid.
  7. Grill the steaks 4 to 5 inches above hot coals or on a high-heat gas grill until well browned, about 6 to 8 minutes per side.
  8. Brush the steaks with a little remaining marinade if desired (ensure it has been boiled first for safety if using) and serve immediately.
