How to Make Barbecued Beer Steak
- Prepare the marinade: In a bowl, combine beer, brown sugar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well.
- Marinate the steak: Place the steak in a zip-top bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the steak, ensuring it's fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Remove steak from marinade and discard marinade.
- Grill the steak: Place the steak on the preheated grill. Grill for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer depending on desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches your desired internal temperature.
- Rest the steak: Once cooked, remove the steak from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
- Slice against the grain and serve immediately.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
