Enjoy the smoky, savory goodness of homemade carne asada that you marinate yourself. With this carne asada recipe, you can avoid the unhealthy additives of commercial marinades and focus on real food flavor.
Place the meat pieces in a large ziptop plastic bag. In a small bowl whisk together the orange juice, red wine vinegar, spice blend, and olive oil. Pour the marinade over the meat. Massage the marinade around the meat pieces. Place on a tray in the refrigerator and allow to marinate for 2 to 24 hours or place it directly in the freezer.
If freezing, remove the meat from the freezer the night before serving and allow to thaw on a tray in the refrigerator.
Heat a medium-hot fire in an outdoor grill. Cook the meat until no longer pink, flipping once. Remove from the heat to a cutting board. Chop the meat finely and serve in tacos, wraps, or burritos.
