Ingredients

2 pounds beef cut thinly or into one inch chunks
6 garlic cloves peeled
¼ cup beer
2 tablespoon white vinegar
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoon red wine
1 teaspoon achiote powder
salt to taste

Instructions

Thinly cut beef, or cut into one inch chunks, set aside in a bowl or ziploc bag.
Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth.
Pour the marinade over beef and marinade for a minimum of 4 hours or overnight.
Skewer beef onto wooden or metal skewers.

Note: Soak wooden skewers in water for 20, 30 minutes to help skewers from burning....not a necessity but certainly helps depending on your heat source!

Grilling

Here you have two options:
You can grill on a gas grill, on a charcoal grill using briquettes or my absolute favorite....lump charcoal.
Cook Chuzos for 7 minutes on one side, flip over and cook for another 7 to 10 minutes.
Done!
Serve on its own or with salsas linked in post and/with/or curtido.....also in post.
Enjoy!
