Get Cooking
- In a small bowl add all spices and blend together.
- Place sirloin cuts on a cutting board and season with dry rub on both sides. Let the meat sit and marinade at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
- Put the meat to the side and begin chopping up all of your taco ingredients: onions, bell peppers, tomatoes, avocado and anything else you want to add. Cook your taco shells after your taco toppings are ready and set aside in a 250-degree oven to keep warm.
- Before putting the meat on the grill, be sure that you get your cast iron grill good and hot. Place meat on grill and cook for 3-4 minutes turning diagonally and cooking for another 3-4 minutes before turning over and cooking on the other side. This will give you great crisscross grill marks.
- Remove meat immediately and let rest for a few minutes before slicing in 1/4 inch slices across the grain.
- Place chopped elk meat in the corn shells and finish it off with the taco toppings.
