I made this over the summer for my husband and me, and we LOVED it! The chimichurri sauce is amazing and the recipe is so simple. There isn't a lot to cover the flavor of really great sirloin. Splurge and get great beef-we did, and it cut like butta! I am making this again tonight for husband's 40th birthday and he is really looking forward to getting back home tonight. One note: last time we made it, we realized we had no propane left in the grill, so I had to put it in the oven--it was still amazing!09/22/09

I held on to this recipe for about a year because I wasn't sure how all of this would taste but I finally made it last night and it was EXCELLENT! The biggest surprise was how great the vinegar and the grilled peaches tasted together. My husband really liked it too! I will definitely make this again!09/03/09
