Can you reverse Sear skirt steak?
Chef's answer
Enter the reverse sear. Like flank, hanger and flap meat, all of which also come from well-exercised muscles, skirt steak delivers a good chew but isn't tough, if prepared and sliced properly. And, because skirt steak is so thin, it quickly reaches its optimal doneness, which is rare or medium-rare.
