I really like the salsa component this recipe added. We didn't have a Pace salsa, but we did have Mrs. Renfro's ghost chili salsa :). (My husband loves spice!) That provided a real nice, subtle heat to the marinade/sauce. My two-lb. flank steak took much longer to cook than I excpected. This is probably because my husband likes his well-done and I'm pregnant and can't have anything but well-done. Other than that, it came out nice and juicy with full flavor!

It was ok...not spicy enough for us. If we make it again we will add more spices.

We were very disappointed with this recipe, given the name Firecracker I expected it to have more zip to it. We found the flavor to be rather bland and I had marinated the flank steak all day, used a hot salsa (personal preference), and followed the recipe exactly. I won't be making this again.
