Notes
Beef Texture: I always make sure to slice my beef against the grain before marinating because it ensures every bite in the wrap stays tender and easy to chew.
The Perfect Char: I prefer using a heavy cast iron skillet for this recipe to get those dark, caramelized edges on the beef that really make the BBQ sauce sing.
Keeping it Fresh: To prevent the avocado from browning, I have learned to toss the slices in lime juice the second they are cut so the wrap looks as good as it tastes.
Assembly Strategy: I suggest keeping the beef and the fresh vegetables in separate containers if you are not eating
