Lovin it in RP!
Oh man I have a treat for you.
I am not sure where you live in RP but getting LP is easy on Samuel Ocaña on the way out to Sandy Beach.
Arrecherra....this will be your favorite thing to put in your body once you taste it. Available at Super Ley in the butcher shop in the cooler in front of the actual butcher shop, top left corner in a vacuum sealed packet, it is marinaded, it is aged, it is super easy to cook and you will not believe you can eat the whole thing in a setting - but you will. It will cost you about 100 pesos per 1/2 kilo. Try it! It is sooooo tender and flavorful you will wonder how you go this far in life without it.
Gotta go now- to Super Ley!

So easy! I love that I can get carne asada at a place where I will already be making a stop! So on Ocana I can get propane for the tank? Hate to be stupid but what do you mean by LP?

Lp liquid propane that goes in your grill tank.
Agree 100% that arrachera (marinaded skirt steak) is absolutely the best tasting most wonderful food! Our favorite brand is SuKarne which is available at Super Ley and sometimes Sam's Club (they also carry other brands). But we usually get it at the Su Karne store across from La Curva. Prices are better. If I remember correctly, it was around $125 pesos / kg a few months ago.
And I'm glad you'll be cooking on the grill. We cooked it on the stove once and it wasn't nearly as good.
¡Provecho!

Look for the Zagas stations, there are 5 that I know of, one is next to a Pemex on Benito Juarez at Sam Ocana about 5-6 blocks north of the Sam's Club/Walmart.
There are 2 more propane stations on the northern edge of town past the old airport on the main highway.

Ahem.....no self respecting Mexican would grill with propane. You gotta buy carbon and do it right. Total different taste. I'm surprised your husband puts up with that.
Carbon is dirty and I don't want that on my balcony, and the grills at Las Palmas are small, and always in use and or dirty. I agree with you about the taste difference, but the convenience of having the grill on the balcony rules. I promise I will still make homeade salsas, rice, and beans.
Favorite brand of guacamole is always going to be homemade. But, at Super Ley at the prepared foods counter you can buy freshly made guacamole. When I make guac, and if it's available, I throw in some pomegranate seeds. The sweet scrunch is nice with the spicy crunch of serrano chile. I rarely use jalapeno, serranos have so much more flavor.

I use sour creme in my guac, along with some secret ingredients (package mix). for a big batch some people use cottage cheese.

what place did you see these at?
All you need to go with is a Ice cold Pacifico
Went to leys and bought the meat and their handmade guacamole and sour cream, by dinner time they almost finished the guacamole, having snack with it.
I could not believe how much meat I had with two packs, but by the end we almost finished all.just next time I will double up with the guacamole.
