Where the fire’s hot, the stories are fresh, and the fajitas are sizzling.

At Sacred Storm Buffalo, we believe good food is more than flavor—it’s connection. Whether you’re feeding a crew after a long day or gathering around the grill with family, skirt steak fajitas are a crowd-pleaser that never miss.

Here’s what we’re cooking at The Cook Shack this week:

Buffalo Skirt Steak Fajitas Recipe

Magic Marinate:

Marinate the Steak:

• In a bowl or zip-top bag, combine all marinade ingredients.
• Add the skirt steak and coat well. Marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably 4–6 hours or overnight in the fridge.

Sizzle the Veggies:

• Bell peppers in every color + red onion
• Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Add sliced peppers and onions. Sauté until tender and slightly charred, about 7–10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Remove and set aside.

Grill the Steak:

• Remove steak from marinade and pat dry.
• Grill or sear in a hot cast-iron skillet over high heat for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
• Let rest for 5 minutes, then slice thinly against the grain.

Wrap it Up:

• Warm tortillas + toppings like avocado, cilantro, lime, and salsa

This dish is a favorite at our The Sacred Storm Butcher Shop and Market, and it’s a perfect way to showcase the bold, clean flavor of buffalo meat if you want to swap out the beef.
