Whether you’re looking at a fridge full of beer left over from the 4th of July barbecue or you’ve decided to test your brewing skills with the folks at Brewbox Miami, this recipe for beer-marinated beef is sure to please a crowd.
Marinating flesh in dark beer gives it a tender and mellow flavor. The addition of Worcestershire adds just the right kick. The recipe calls for flank steak, but we used top round roast cut into chunks for the grill. Every piece was washed down with a cold beer. There were no complaints.
