Cut beef Steak into 1-1/4-inch pieces. Place beef and 2-1/2 tablespoons cilantro mixture in food-safe plastic bag; turn to coat. Place remaining cilantro mixture and fruit in separate food-safe plastic bag; turn to coat. Close bags securely. Marinate beef and fruit in refrigerator 15 minutes to 2 hours. 2)Soak eight 9-inch bamboo skewers in water 10 minutes; drain. Thread beef evenly onto four skewers leaving small space between pieces. Thread fruit onto remaining four separate skewers. 3)Place kabobs on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill beef kabobs, covered, 8 to 10 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 9 to 11 minutes) for medium rare (145°F) to medium (160°F) doneness, turning occasionally. Grill fruit kabobs 5 to 7 minutes or until softened and beginning to brown, turning once. 4)Season beef with salt, as desired. Drizzle reserved orange juice over fruit kabobs.

Steps:

• Whisk orange juice, cumin, chile pepper, and sea salt together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the steak, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove steak from marinade and discard marinade.
• Cook the steak until it starts to firm and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 130 degrees F (54 degrees C).

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in food processor and whir until it's well mixed (or you can just mix all the ingredients together - it's up to you).
• Marinate fajita strips for at least 30 minutes, preferably overnight (I usually do this in a Ziplock bag).
• This is a really versatile recipe, and you can easily add or subtract amounts of the ingredients to suit your tastes - experiment and enjoy! We've used this marinade on chicken, beef, and buffalo.
• Note: make sure to use beer in this recipe that you like, otherwise you might end up with a marinade you don't like the taste of. :)
