Isabel grew up in El Paso eating carne asada at family weekly grills. She covers Hispanic carnivore content — flank, skirt, hanger, picanha, and the salt-only versions of dishes that traditionally used citrus and lime. Started carnivore in 2023 after reading about her cousin's gout resolution.

Recipes by Isabel

Sliced flank steak on a wooden cutting board, sliced thin across the grain on an angle, rosy medium-rare interior, butter melting on top

Flank Steak (Pan-Seared, Salt-Only)

Flank is a lean 1.5-2 lb cut from the abdomen. Sear 3-4 min/side, slice thin across the grain. 24g protein, 5g fat per 100g cooked. Cheap and lean.

Beef heart skewers on a wooden cutting board, deep brown grill marks, dark red medium-rare interior visible at the cube edges, scattered salt, four skewers fanned out

Beef Heart Skewers (Anticucho-Style)

Beef heart cubed, salted, threaded on skewers, grilled 6-8 minutes total. Salt only — no aji panca, no garlic. The Peruvian anticucho stripped to its essence.
