Another week of college football is in the books and it was a weekend where Kansas State didn’t play. They are getting ready for Auburn this Thursday. So to make up for it, I decided to go with something a little more colorful for food. And boy did it ever come through. It’s fajita time.
I basically took this recipe from Apple and Sparkle. What I did different, however, is what knocked it out of the proverbial food park. I added some liquid smoke and cinnamon for the marinade on the sirloin (not skirt) steak. I also added some pineapple and hatch peppers to the grill list. It was absolutely fantastic.
