Sirloin and Shrimp in Tequila - Chile Sauce image

When summer finally arrives I fire up the BBQ and savour this dish. Adjust any seasoning amounts, I like it spicy. Prep time includes 2 hours chill time for the sauce. I like to mop up the extra sauce / juices with a rustic bread I get here at a local bakery.
