"[Photographs: J. Kenji Lopez-Alt] Note: If skirt is unavailable, substitute with hanger or sirloin flap (also sold as sirloin tip in New England—it's different from sirloin steak). Flank steak can also be used. For best flavor, grind your own chili powder from a mix of equal parts ancho and guajillo chilies. About the author: J.
