Our Mesquite Fire Fajitas are only as good as our ingredients. That’s why we use only premium meats: because they’re the star of the show. We source the best outside skirt steak, cut against the grain and juicy chicken breast sliced thick. Each protein is generously seasoned and expertly prepared before we throw it onto the open-flame mesquite to sear in the juices and lock in the smoke. You can taste the quality in every tortilla-full.
Since the 1930s, when the vaqueros and cowboys drove cattle along the Texas/Mexico border, fajitas have been flame-grilled over mesquite wood. In the harsh terrain along the Rio Grande, mesquite was the one tree readily available. It burns quickly at high temperatures, giving our meats a distinctive smoky, earthy flavor and searing in the juices. So, when we take your outside skirt steak or chicken breast off the open-flame grill, and fold them into warm, hand-pressed tortillas, the flavor is sealed into every sizzling bite.
Every detail of our signature fajita spice blend is a nod to authentic Tex-Mex flavor. A balanced mix
of Mexican oregano, cumin, achiote and pasilla chiles adds notes of citrus and florals, sweetness and peppers, earthiness and wood. We use these ingredients to season our premium steak and chicken, so you can savor the warming, native spices of the Rio Grande border.
