Instructions
Combine orange juice, beer, oil, lime juice, salt, pepper, oregano, garlic, bay leaves, and rosemary in a glass 9- by 13-in. baking dish.
Add orange halves, onion, and steak and mix with your hands to coat evenly.
Let stand at room temperature 1 hour, or chill, covered, 2 hours (no longer, or the citrus will "cook" the meat), turning meat occasionally.
Heat a grill to very high (550 to 650). Discard rosemary, bay leaves, and orange halves.
Drain meat and onions. Put onions on a doubled sheet of foil and turn up edges just a little to make a shallow 6- by 9-in. container.
Grill onions on the foil, stirring occasionally with tongs, until edges start to char, 8 to 10 minutes.
Add steak to grill and cook, turning once, until well browned and done the way you like, 8 minutes for medium-rare.
Transfer steak and onions to a board; slice steak.
Serve with tortillas, guacamole, and hot sauce.
*Warm directly on the grill just until hot, turning once; stack and wrap in a towel.
