Sizzling Flat-Top Fajitas with Rasheed Philips on the Masterbuilt Gravity Series®

There’s nothing quite like the sound of sizzling beef and caramelized peppers hitting a scorching hot griddle—and with this Flat-Top Fajitas recipe by Rasheed Philips, you can bring that restaurant-quality fajita experience straight to your backyard. Made on the Masterbuilt Gravity Series® Charcoal Grill with the Griddle Insert, this recipe is all about bold flavors, high heat, and an irresistible smoky-charred finish.

Why Fajitas on a Griddle?

While fajitas are traditionally made in a cast iron pan or over an open flame, using a flat-top griddle on the Gravity Series® takes them to the next level. With 600°F of direct heat, the griddle locks in moisture, builds a flavorful crust on the beef, and perfectly softens the peppers and onions—all while keeping the cooking process fast and efficient. Plus, by pre-slicing the beef before cooking, every bite gets evenly seasoned and infused with bold heat from cayenne and red pepper flakes.

How Rasheed Philips Brings the Heat

Rasheed keeps this recipe simple yet packed with flavor, layering in spices, seared-in juices, and fresh ingredients to create the ultimate fajitas. The thinly sliced beef is seasoned and seared to perfection, then tossed with sautéed bell peppers, onions, and garlic for that classic fajita combination. The heat from the cayenne and red pepper flakes adds the perfect kick, balancing beautifully with the natural sweetness of the caramelized vegetables.

Tips for the Perfect Griddle Fajitas:

  • Slice Against the Grain – Cutting the beef against the grain ensures it stays tender and juicy after cooking.
  • Use High Heat – Cooking at 600°F on the Gravity Series® gives you quick searing, deep flavor, and perfectly blistered veggies.
  • Don’t Overcrowd the Griddle – Giving ingredients space to cook evenly helps achieve that perfect texture.
  • Toss It All Together – Finishing the fajitas by combining the beef and veggies on the griddle ensures every bite is packed with flavor.

Serve It Up

Pile your sizzling beef and veggies onto warm flour tortillas and top with your favorites—fresh cilantro, a squeeze of lime, or even a drizzle of smoky salsa. Whether you’re cooking for a crowd or just want to spice up your weeknight dinner, these Flat-Top Fajitas bring bold flavor with every bite.

Fire up your Gravity Series® grill with griddle insert and get cooking—these fajitas are waiting for you!
