ANTICUCHOS

1 large Sirloin Steak
2 large Garlic Cloves
4 To 6 Medium Jalapeno Peppers
1 cup Red Wine Vinegar
1 1/2 cups Water
2 teaspoons Salt
1/2 teaspoon Pepper
1 teaspoon Oregano
1 teaspoon Cumin
1 teaspoon Ground Red Chile


In a blender or food processor, grind the jalapenos and
peeled garlic to a pulp. Add all the other ingredients,
except the meat, and blend well. Cut the meat into 1-inch
cubes and place in a large bowl, and cover with the marinade.
Marinate overnight or all day. Place the meat on skewers
and cook on the grill over mesquite wood, basting frequently
with the sauce. Serve with warm flour tortillas and plenty
of Mexican beer with lime slices.
