Takes a lot of pounding and/or tenderization and/or marinating.......but OK.

it makes damn good fajita with only about an hour of marinating. we just got a whole cow and started to butcher it... got two giant 90 pound slabs of bigeye... the marbling on this sucker is amazing so far.

If you're making fajitas with flank steak, just cut across the grain of the meat. Viola - tender meat.

I was going to describe it as more like ketchup, oil and orange juice dumped together.

whereas 1000 island is more like ketchup, mayo and sweet pickle relish blended together.

I wouldn't doubt it.

BTW, I was thinking of something like Wishbone or Kraft bottled Russian & 100 Island dressings with those descriptions.
