1 tsp Ground Cumin

Pinch of Salt

Pinch of Black Pepper

Chop, mince and shave all necessary dry ingredients. Combine all ingredients and mix well. Pour over steak and let sit in fridge for 2-4 hours. Wipe off all chunks before cooking to keep from burning.

1 Cup Tequila

1 Cup Apple Cider Vinegar

2 TBSP Honey

1 Bunch Cilantro Washed & Stems Trimmed
