My last test involved 3hr marinade and failed horribly. Tough as leather

My recipe:
Zesty Italian dressing
Limes
Lemon (1 per 2 limes)
good tequila
fresh jalapenos
green onions
put meat in a ziplock
pour in Italian dressing to cover meat
Juice the lemons and limes, add to bag
add 1 heavy shot of tequila per pound of meat
pour over meat
add the lemons and limes to bag (or zest them)
quarter and seed Jalapenos, throw in bag
trim the ends of the onions and bag them (the onions not the ends)
seal it up
refrigerate for 24 hours rolling the bag every so often
cook over charcoal grille to desired doneness
I always grill the onions whole as well, but few of them make it to the table
Skirt steak needs a slow cook to get rid of toughness
when you cut the meat, cut it 45 degrees to the grain this will help with some of the toughness
