⅓ cup olive oil

4 limes, juiced (approximately ¼ cup)

1 orange, juiced (approximately ⅓ cup)

¼ cup red wine vinegar

2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

# Instructions:
01 -
Place the flank steak fillets in a large ziplock bag. In a bowl combine the olive oil, lime juice, orange juice, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, minced garlic, salt and Worcestershire sauce. Stir to combine.
02 -
Pour the marinade over the flank steak and close the ziplock bag tightly. Shake to cover and place in the refrigerator for 2 to 24 hours.
03 -
Preheat your grill to very high heat.
04 -
Using tongs, remove the meat from the marinade and place on the grill. Brush with BBQ sauce.
05 -
Leave the meat on the grill for 5 to 10 minutes, then flip it over. Brush the other side with BBQ sauce.
06 -
Let it grill for an additional 5 to 10 minutes. If you prefer your meat a bit rarer, 5 to 7 minutes per side is sufficient. Check for doneness and grill for a few more minutes if necessary.
07 -
Remove and brush with additional BBQ sauce if desired. Serve with your favorite side dishes, or slice and serve in tacos.
# Notes:
01 -
The marinade can be prepared in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
02 -
For best results, allow the steak to rest for 5 minutes before slicing to retain juices.
