• whisk hoisin sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, garlic, chili sauce, and ginger together in a bowl until marinade is smooth; pour into a resealable plastic bag. add skirt steak, coat with marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. marinate in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours.
• remove steak from the marinade and shake off excess. discard remaining marinade.
• preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• cook steak until it starts to firm and is reddish-pink and juicy in the center, 6 to 8 minutes per side. sprinkle blue cheese over the steak and cook until cheese just starts to melt, 2 to 3 minutes. an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the steak should read 130 degrees f (54 degrees c).
