Griddled Fajitas with a side of Street Corn
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ม.ค. 2025
- People are always asking me for easy, weeknight meal ideas. Cooking fajitas using marinated meat from local Mexican meat markets plus an easy side of street corn is one of the fastest, tastiest meals I can make my family. If you do not have access to a Mexican meat market you can create you own marinade.
We can never agree on beef or chicken, so we make both in this recipe. Specifically on the chicken, I prefer thighs because of the flavor ad juiciness. In this recipe we griddle the fajitas, which can also be achieved by cooking in a cast iron skillet. Alternatively you can also directly grill this recipe.

Those HEB tortillas are heaven!
You ain't lying!!! Best tortillas I've ever had and all I use when we need tortillas.
Pro tip! With the Cacique crema, don’t peel the seal off. Just stab a hole right in the middle (I use a chop stick) and use it like a squirt bottle! Keep up the great work!
Great tip! I'm trying that.
The HEB butter tortillas are the best!!!!
This is what I miss about working in Texas. Mexican meat markets are awesome!
I love the pre-marinated fajitas from my local Mexican meat market so good. Congratulations cook them regularly. Love the street corn recipe I will be making this one.
Thanks James!
Will look here in my area for a store that might sell the pre-marinated fajitas. Looks delicious.
The size of that taco!!! You are doing the lords work.
HEB does make some righteous tortillas. I used to go to Central Market, and if they had some warm butter tortillas, I was having fajitas that day. I got tired of relying on Central Market to determine when I could have fajitas, and I learned how to make my own tortillas. I absosmurfly love fajitas.
Thanks for producing great videos of things I'd actually want to, and will make for myself
You are welcome!
Oh. Thank Goodness. I was so worried. Glad to know you keep your tool clean!
So important in today's world. A clean tool is a happy tool. A well used tool is even happier!
:)
Love it Bro gonna try it this weekend. I have almost all your seasonings and will never again go back to any other they are truly unbelievable !! Everyone in my family loves them. Just did pulled pork for Thanksgiving like you did with Ole Boy Honey Hog and Honey Hog hot and the fat separator. Everyone loved it and the Meat Mitch sauce. My man keep it up please!! Thanks Matt!!
Great looking Fajita and Street corn! Simple and easy!!
Thanks!!
I’m from texas but live in New England now,love the videos and rubs but hard to get up here.Keep doing what you’re doing
I am feeling this recipe. Gonna make it next week for out of town guests. Thanks!
Have fun!
Thank you - my Flatrock is finally arriving in a week and I've been eagerly watching your griddle videos for cooking ideas. Very excited. I love Meat Church seasonings as well - always keep a stock of garlic/herb, holy cow, gospel, etc.
Fantastic. Enjoy that!
I love your videos, Matt! Thanks so much!
Always great videos that help us all learn so much. Can't wait to get up to Waxahachie.
Loving the wrap up after the videos. You've been doing this maybe the longest but continue to bring it with new ideas. Haven't had a Meatchurch product that I didn't enjoy, love them all and happy to support you guys. #stilltheking
Lovin the super easy sides you’re sharing. Thanks so much👍🏼☺️
You are so welcome!
Thanks Matt love your videos. Been on a keto diet and loving your non sugary recipes lately. I cooked the Mexican pulled pork and your Texas ribs this past weekend and they were wonderful. Your fajita seasoning is the best I’ve ever had look forward to trying this out.
Love it. BTW, I know everyone reacts different on Keto, but even when I use my rubs with sugar when I did keto, it didn't affect me. The sugar cooks down so I guess that helps. Cheers!
Literally just finished making fajitas and decided to watch your channel as I sat down to eat! You gotta love fajitas. I did skirt steak marinated in mojo on the green egg.
Sounds great!
This looks fabulous! I remember as a kid going to a Mexican restaurant and ordering the fajitas, you felt like a boss! You could hear it sizzling as they brought them out from the kitchen in that screaming hot cast iron pan. I don't have a flat top, but I am going to buy a cast iron griddle for my Traeger so I can do this at home. Thanks for all you do.
That sizzle may be the first thing I remember about moving to Texas. I should have said that in the video!
I miss the all you could eat fajitas at don pablos
You really don't talk about the Lemon Pepper Seasoning enough, its REALLY good ! My kids can't get enough of it on seafood
I haven't even made the Mexican Brisket and now you've dropped this. Have mercy
I don't stop cooking. :)
Long time local fan here. In fact I was in your store yesterday picking up some Texas Sugar. I would love to do a video with you about frogs legs on the smoker. Let me know. Thanks
I love your videos! Good stuff!!!
Anything over med-rare for beef is a crime! You are correct, sir. This recipe looks killer... going to have to try it at home!
Nice job man, looks fantastic!
Thank you!!!
A bit off topic but what makes me somewhat proud as a UK citizen, is that all you good barbecuing people seem to use the thermapen which is a small UK company based not far from where I live on the south coast. I got one with my Traeger (a great US product)!
Nice!
The end was great! I was totally watching and thinking that about the spatula. Then I told myself that you have forgotten more about cooking than I’ll ever know so shut the hell up! 🤣😂🤣 Love the videos!
Fajitas on a griddle is such a quick meal and fan favorite. Love the Fajita seasoning. I use it on a lot of dishes. The elote side is delicious. I thought you were going to sprinkle some on the taco :)
I love it!
We love griddle fajitas. Making some tonight actually. Nice video.
Nice!
Love you're style and fun to do ❤
Always enjoy....Thanks
You bet
DAMN heavy handed on the fixin's LOVE it
YESSIR
Can’t beat those HEB tortillas! My mom freezes and brings them when she visits us in NC.
Man they are so good. Especially the butter tortillas.
Killing it in that FlatRock!
Great new video! Thanks!
You bet!
These fajitas are life! 🔥🔥👉🏻
Great videos have learned alot what cooler would you recomend for resting meat
Michoacana is good but here in Lubbock we have Amigos United Supermarket and they have Fajita norteña and tablitas (cross cut ribs) norteña, and they are amzing!!!
H.E.B. also has "mi tienda" branded tortillas in refrigerated section. Their raw just as good as the freshly made ones there, beans and pre-seasoned fajitas as well. Hard to beat Mexican grocers pre-sesoned though.
👍☘️😎 look fantastic meat church
I have watched a ton of your videos. I am on a Carnivore diet, and you teach me how to cook Carnivore. I spend ALL my carb count on spices.
Man...I really need to get a griddle! I've been out of work for 3 months and I haven't been able to get one. Can't wait for when I can. Also man, you keep doing you! Haters gonna hate! I love it when people can't use common sense. I really hope people would know that you wouldn't use the same spatula for everything. Good grief. But anyways, fajitas is my wife's favorite meal and she prefers thighs, just like me, so we will go that route. She can't have corn, but the rest of us can, so we are good to go there. Loving the griddle series and when I get one, it will be viewed on the regular! Good stuff man. With me being out of work, I've looked forward to these midweek videos and I've gone back through some others over time as well. You've inspired a few new ideas for me and my family.
I really appreciate the feedback Jason. Good luck to you sir. Stay in touch and thanks for being here! -Matt
Must be nice to have a couple Mexican grocery stores around you... lol. Looks FANTASTIC!
Spoiled for sure
Loved this and it's so timely. I don't have a cast iron flat top but I do have a stainless steel Little Griddle that fits on my large gas grill and we've been wanting Fajitas so with your guidance, it's time to try it.
And I need to get over to your store. I'm out in Weatherford so not too far.
Looks great!
Love All your videos Pastor. Must do an AL Pastor video
Michocana. The best. Props to u bro. Get the avocado salsa.
Thanks Martin!
Digging the new griddle! Gotta scoop one up for myself. Loving the content my dude 😎
Thanks Kegan!
Every time you say, "Mrs Meat Church likes this but im doing the video so im doing this" I keep expecting to see her pop out of nowhere.
She is way better looking than me but doesn't like to be on camera. I'll see if I can talk her into it.
Frozen corn or corn on the cob just wondering
Thanks, bro. Doing these tonight! Also, I see a really nice Blaze griddle in the background - why do you never use that in any of you vids? That's the same one I have, but I thought I was the only person on the planet that had one. All I ever see is Blackstone-style with the cast iron top.
Making me Hungry!!
What an awesome recipe. Looks super delicious. I hope you one day come back to Holy Smoke BBQ in Sweden. I would definitely join your masterclass then
I am talking to Johan about that!
@@MeatChurchBBQ That’s great news 👍
2:00 where you get the wood bowls from? @meatchurch
Orange Juice and some Fajita seasoning is the easiest marinade possible. Looks good 😂
Oh yes!
Love the content Matt and the product even more. But why can’t I find the meato bandio hat anywhere on the site ?! 🤣🤣
Great vid again 👍 Like the end wrap post vlog thing interesting to hear your thoughts the glove jokes was funny even tho I love my heat gloves 😂 and try not to read the bad comments it will only chip away at your soul there usually bots anyways keep up the good work!
Awesome video!
Thanks!
You ain't lying about the HEB tortillas! I live in Florida but my SIL lives in Helotes and whenever the in-laws head out there, we always ask them to bring us back some HEB tortillas and Julio's tortilla chips.
That is awesome. Gotta love HEB.
Look delicious!
Thanks!
I have a carniceria just down the street too. I can get the marinated pollo and carne still whole. I carve the strips after the cook instead of prior to cooking.
YES!
Looks very delicious 😋 😋. I’ll try this recipe Soon thank you 🙏
Enjoy!
@@MeatChurchBBQ thank you !
The spatula with the holes, what is that designed to do? And do you recommend using this style to griddle with? Luv the recipe s
Do they normally use crema in elotes in Texas? Up here in Chicago it's mainly mayo, parkay, and cotija with chili powder. Still looks great either way!
Tasty lookin' stuff, but how does the Flatrock compare to the Loco Griddle?
Tell the glove police to chill. You obviously know what your doing and We LOVE your fajita seasoning
Thanks Frank!
Looks delicious 🤤
Cheers!
Hey Matt, I freaking love these videos so much. I am going to move to an apartment for the first time in my life, could you make a video on BBQing in limited spaces like an apartment? What equipment one would need and things like that. I have a patio but I know I won't have much space for a big Traeger, even though a Traegar is what I'd love. But I will have some room at least outside.
As always, excellent recipe vid!!! Grew up with my moms/grandmas homemade tortillas and eventually to my chagrin became a tortilla snob, but honestly...as far as store bought or even authentic restaurants, it's so difficult to beat the value and deliciousness of HEB homemade tortillas! And that combo of crema, butter and cotija cheese on the elote is 🔥🔥
P.S. I went to a Powerlifting competition in Frisco a couple weeks back, traveling from Bandera, TX and to my surprise your store was relatively so close to the highway. Unfortunately due to the long day trip and start time of the meet, I didn't have time to stop and was so bummed! Had I known I would have left even earlier! Will have to make a time for another trip up there. We go through your seasonings like crazy! Thankfully Tractor Supply sells a good few, maybe one day HEB? 👀We still make online orders though! Reminds me to do one right now 😂need voodo and holy gospel 🙌
Thanks so much for taking the time to give this feedback Michael. Come by some day. Thanks for being here!
Just get yourself a George Foreman Grill. I've owned mine for thirty years. They're built to last.
Indoor or outside, the Jorge can be the best $30 dollar investment. Cook those beef fajitas while placing your tortillas on top.
🤣🤣 "Doubles as a weapon or prison shank" Love the videos! Have to wonder about the comment...how would you know that information?😆 I too love chicken thighs. Would love to see a video on smoking those either with a rub or bbq sauce.
So I heard. :)
Pro tip: Instead of using butter, throw some diced up bacon on the griddle. Once the bacon is almost done throw the corn on. Mix together.
Thank Ya Sir !! Looks delish !!
Thanks!
@@MeatChurchBBQ YW Sir !!
No doubt the marinated meat is good, but many times you can ask them to make it "preparada" and they have a lime juice style marinate that is pretty bomb too, gotta cook within a few hours though from picking up. I make my own carne asada marinade w/ lime juice, orange juice, sliced onions, cilantro and a bit of worstershire sauce. Tenderizes the meat and comes out very tasty!
Will have to try that.
I dont have a traegar, but I have a blackstone, will the Blackstone work just as well?
Question:
Can I smoke a pre-cooked roast? We don’t have time to smoke the whole thing before Easter dinner, so I thought I’d cook it the day before and then throw it in the smoker on Sunday to give it some flavor.
I'd love to see a charcoal series. Some of us apartment dwellers only have access to a small charcoal grill.
@Jason Fuller sounds like a personal problem 😮
I cook on my Santa Maria and Mill Scale Yakitori from time to time. A few on this channel...Japanese BBQ Wings, Live Fire Steak
I just need a bucket of the street corn and I’m good.
@Gene Snodgrass no one asked what you need. WTH are you implying?
it's so good and easy.
On my play list to and Hi back to your oldest.
Cheers
Great video! I'm on the fence about buying the Pit Boss 1600 Elite, or the Traeger Ironwood XL. Any thoughts?
Well, I partner with Traeger, full disclosure. I obviously love mine (honest to god truth).
Screw the haters. Everyone is a critic these days.
Matt,
Can you use frozen out of the bag?
Is there going to be another summer grilling series this year with fish and seafood again?
100%
Great video Matt! That griddle is awesome. Where can I get one? The fajitas looked so delicious!
Traeger Platinum dealers.
@@MeatChurchBBQ Not too many of them in Nova Scotia. Lol. I’ll go online for that. Thank you!
Looks delicious Matt. How do you compare the flatrock vs blackstone
Honestly, I've never thought a BS was anything special. They got in the market at the right time and killed it during Covid. Honest 2 cents.
Proper marination is the key. If you don't have access to a La Michoacana or an equivalent, you are looking at a lot more work in preparing the marinade etc.
100%
Looks amazing. Is the corn you used frozen, canned...?
Have the same question!
Throw some Oxtails on the Traeger ... yer missing out. Would love to see a video on it
Hey I went to costco to buy sirloin flap like you said but didn't see it. Does it go by another name by any chance?
I’d ask the butchers there. Not all Costco warehouse’s sell the same stuff and you never know when they’re gonna have it.
I like the Flatrock, but can’t justify the price. I currently have an Egg and thinking about getting a SizzleQ to try some of what you’re doing. Recently bought some of your rubs: Gospel, Cow and Voodoo. It’s all good stuff. Appreciate the AARs! Forget the naysayers
My first griddle was entry level. Gotta make sure you like and and will use it. Cheers!
It’s hard to beat HEB tortillas! I load up and bring them back to Kansas.
FACT
Flat rock or loco? Thoughts?
How would you compare the Flatrock to the LoCo?
I ain't mad at it 😂
Where can we get one of those hats from ?
What is the meat marinaded in first?
Can you please make ham burnt ends (maybe with a coke/brown sugar/mustard glaze) and for the side a loaded baked potatoe salad (potatoes/mayo/sour cream / cheese bacon/ green onions. So good cold but even better hot and would probably be over the top smoked! I don’t have a smoker yet lol
This is an epic recipe - www.traeger.com/recipes/loaded-baked-potato-salad
Again you have shown all of us that cooking inside sucks! I can’t wait to be able to get the flatrock up here in Canada! My traeger smoker is so well made that I could buy a black stone but I will wait for the flatrock.
Cheers Stacy! Have a cesar for me.
F@~%&* delicious! .....dont care what other people comment.
They can start their own you tube vids.
Awesome, thanks from alberta canada,calgary
Bro I’m Mexican and live I’m mcallen. Maybe y’all’s is different but I wouldn’t recommend to anyone. God bless you and your gut on this marinated Michoacán meat. Aguilars in the rgv is better.
This was Super Garcia. Closest Michocana is in Ennis, so I rarely make it. Never had Aguilars. Will have to try next time I'm in the RGV. Thanks Jaime!
@@MeatChurchBBQ love all the new videos on the flat rock. Keep them coming.
