Tender steak cooked to medium-rare perfection, piled up into soft tortillas, and topped with a fresh green tomato chimichurri sauce. We've added wild rocket and buffalo cheese, but you're welcome to swap for your favourite taco toppings. Dinner is served, and it’s never been more drool-worthy. Perfect for a BBQ Friday night with a cold beer.
