Directions:
Place steak in a large ziplock bag.

In a medium-sized bowl, add orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, vinegar, garlic, jalapeno, sugar, salt, cumin, chili powder, onion powder, and garlic powder. Whisk to combine then pour over meat in the bag. Place in fridge to marinate for 2-24 hours.

Preheat grill to high. Remove steak from marinade and place on grill. Turn after 7-10 minutes. Grill until desired doneness and temperature (130 degrees). Do not overcook.

Remove meat from grill and allow to rest for 10-15 minutes. Slice very thin.

(You can also broil, or cook on the stovetop in a cast iron to get that nice crustiness.)
