5 lbs. Skirt steak
Fajita Seasoning (Jiminez is excellent)
20 Limes
1 Quart Beer
1 Jar Pickapeppa Sauce
1 Jar Woody's Barbeque Sauce
1 Tablespoon Lawry's Seasoned Salt -- , or to taste
1 Tablespoon Pepper -- , or to taste
6 Onions -- , cut in wedges

Sprinkle the fajita seasoning and squeeze the lime juice over the meat,
then place in a pan with the lime peels. Cover with beer and add
Pickapeppa and Woody's Barbeque Sauce along with seasoned salt and
pepper. Let sit 24 hours.

Place the steaks on a grill over a mesquite fire. Turn frequently,
basting the meat with marinade. Add the onion wedges and cover. Cook for
10 to 15 minutes.

When done, cut the fajitas in 4-inch-long strips, then add the marinade
and reheat.

Carolyn's Note: The recipe didn't say how to prepare the fajita. I would
place some in a large warmed flour tortilla with sour cream, guacamole,
and onion pieces, and roll it up to eat. (I haven't tried this recipe
yet. It sounds very good.)
