Tim Love’s Skirt Steaks: True “Cowboy Cooking”

Chef Tim Love's "urban Western cooking" is catching on from coast to coast.

And on "The Early Show" Monday, he served up three mouth-watering recipes for one of his favorite cuts of meat – the skirt steak – demonstrating "cowboy cooking" at its finest!

A well-cooked steak is one of the signs of a great chef, and nobody does it better than Love, executive chef and owner of the Lonesome Dove Western Bistro and the Love Shack, both in Fort Worth, Texas.

Skirt steak is one of the tastiest and most affordable cuts of steak (about $9.99/lb.), but also one of the easiest to overcook and ruin.

There are two ways to cook the skirt steak: to marinate it for a long time to tenderize it, then cook it for a longer time over lower heat, or to crank up the heat and sear it for just a few minutes on each side.
