2 (1 -1 1/2 lb) skirt steaks, trimmed of membrane and excess fat
12 ounces beer
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
2 -3 tablespoons chipotle hot sauce, such as Tabasco Chipotle Pepper Sauce, plus more for serving
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 1/2 tablespoons coarse kosher salt
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
3 large red onions, cut into 1/2-in .-thick slices
12 (8 inch) flour tortillas, warmed
lime wedge

1
Cut each steak in half crosswise.
2
Put in a large resealable plastic bag.
3
Stir together beer, orange juice, lime juice, hot sauce, and garlic, then pour over steaks.
4
Seal bag and refrigerate at least 5 hours and up to overnight.
5
Prepare a gas or charcoal grill for medium-high heat.
6
Drain meat and discard marinade.
7
Mix salt and cumin and rub into meat.
8
Spray onions lightly with vegetable oil spray and set, with steaks, on a cleaned and oiled cooking grate. Don't cover.
9
For medium-rare to medium doneness (cut to check), grill steaks 3 to 4 minutes per side if less than 1/2 inches thick; add 1 more minute per side if more than 1/2 inches thick. Turn steaks at least once while grilling (more if juice starts to pool on surface). Grill onions, turning once, until browned on both sides and cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes total.

After removing steaks from grill, let rest 5 minutes (so juices redistribute through the meat) before slicing.
