Hi John, Yep, still here and shivering because the high today was 60! Rough, I know. Yes, bracciole is a delight. Especially when made with garden tomatoes.

Hi lleechef,

Have not heard from you in a while, still in southern CA? My Sicilian Grandmother made the best bracciole in the world on an old wood stove. Talk about good eats.

Hi Cathy,

No, about five cloves.

Traditional is made with oregano and parsley. You can also use cilantro only.

Correct. I've not tried it on pork but see no reason why it would not do well.

Flank steak IS my most favorite cut of beef; HANDS DOWN. While I marinate mine a bit differently (but not by MUCH), skirt steak to me is the most flavorable cut of beef. Now, for the strange part... I can't get same in my area. I can get it in the city where I work though, some 40 miles away.

Looks great. I do a similar thing with skirt steak. I prefer it to any other cut of beef. Call me crazy, at least I'm a cheap date.
