Freeze the beef for 10 minutes and then cut it across the grain into 1/4 inch slices.
Preheat the grill to high.
In a medium bowl, mix together the lemongrass, 1 Tablespoon of the fish sauce, the soy sauce (or coconut aminos), 3/4 teaspoon of the honey, 1/2 of the onion, and the pepper. Add the beef and stir it to coat - let it marinate for 15-30 minutes.
In the meantime, make the dressing. In a small bowl, combine the oil, the lime juice, jalapenos, 1 Tablespoon of fish sauce, 3/4 teaspoon honey, and the remaining onion.
In a large salad bowl, combine the lettuce, cucumbers, mint, and onion. Toss with the dressing to coat.
Grill the sliced beef over high heat, about 2 minutes on each side.
Arrange the beef over the salad.
