Bloody Mary Skirt Steak with bowl of roasted potatoes.

A juicy skirt skirt steak marinated in a Bloody Mary-like marinade, seared to juicy perfection on the grill and served with Parmesan roasted tiny potatoes is a flavorful meal the whole family can enjoy and it’s a snap to make.

Of course, it’s hard to go wrong with meat and potatoes. But the humble shirt steak is often overlooked in favor of the more upscale filet mignon of the more mainstream flank steak. It’s a shame because there are so many reasons to love skirt steak in and I find myself choosing it more and more over flank steak. The skirt steak comes from the diaphragm region of the cow and it is a long, thin strip of meat that is packed with flavor. It is best cooked over high heat and only to medium-rare.

To spice up the marinade for the skirt steak, I used a wonderful Bloody Mary Spice Mix from a brand new specialty foods company, Madison Park Foods. They have a fabulous line of carefully blended, high quality spice mixes. Having a few spice blends on hand is a wonderful way to make meal preparation quick and easy.

If you want to use your own Bloody Mary Spice Mix, use a mixture of paprika, celery seed, white pepper, cayenne pepper, and onion powder. Combine the ingredients in quantities to suit your own personal taste.

 

Of course, a Bloody Mary Marinade must have horseradish. I didn’t add much, so this recipe is very family friendly. Add a little more if you want a lot of zip!

    Just made this…instead of marinating the steak I threw it in the slow cooker. Amazing!!!

    What is THIS delicious witchcraft?! I love the use of bloody mary as a marinadeโ€”the idea’s never even occured to me before. I can’t remember how it started, but ever since I was a kid I ordered bloody marys from the airplane beverage service cart without fail. Hahah, this would be a definite upgrade ๐Ÿ™‚
