Dr Pepper Beef Marinade Recipes

DR PEPPER GRILLED STEAK TIPS

Steps:

• If the steak tips are long strips, leave them that way. If they are already cut into pieces, that is fine too. Place in a gallon zip lock bag. Mix 1 cup of the BBQ sauce, all of the vinaigrette, the Dr pepper, vinegar and oil and pour over the meat. Marinate for about 12 hours but no longer that 24.
• When ready to grill, heat grill to high.
• Discard marinade and rinse the beef. Then pat dry, really pressing the paper towels into the meat.
• Oil the grill and the tips and place on the grill for two minutes. Flip and brush on the Dr Pepper BBQ sauce. After two minutes flip again and brush on more Dr Pepper BBQ sauce. Continue with this process using about 2 cups of the BBQ sauce or until the tips are cooked to your desired doneness. Save the remaining cup of BBQ sauce for serving.
• Remove the tips from the grill and let sit 10 minutes before cutting further and serving.
• If you used already cut up tips, serve with the additional BBQ sauce. If you bought the long strips, cut them now into chunks and serve with the BBQ sauce.
• Good served with our garlic mashed potatoes, see here.

DR. PEPPER JALAPENO BEEF JERKY RECIPE - (5/5)

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine all of the ingredients for the marinade. Bring to a boil and reduce the heat to a simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until the mixture has reduced by half. You should have just over a cup of marinade. Chill the marinade completely. Transfer the sliced beef to a gallon sized zip top bag and pour in the marinade. Massage the marinade into the meat and refrigerate for 8 to 12 hours, or overnight. Preheat your smoker or oven to approximately 170°F. Remove the meat from the marinade and dry each strip thoroughly by laying on paper towels. Transfer the strips to the grill grate, jerky rack, or cooling rack and smoke/cook for 2 to 3 hours (depending on the thickness of your slices, some thicker pieces can take 4 to 5 hours). Check often after the first hour to be sure your jerky is drying evenly. You are looking for jerky that is firm and still slightly pliable, but not soft. If you bend your jerky and it breaks, you've cooked it a little too long. Place the finished jerky in a gallon zip top bag while it is still warm. Don't seal closed all the way. The jerky will steam in the bag slightly and this step will make the jerky moist. The jerky will last 3 to 4 days on the counter or 2 weeks in the fridge.

DR. PEPPER SMOKED BRISKET RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:

• Pierce the brisket and pour either Dr. Pepper over brisket, enough to cover the brisket and marinade in the Dr. Pepper overnight. Take out in the morning, and rub canola oil on the brisket and rub the brisket with the rub seasoning of your choice. Make sure the brisket is fully covered in the rub and well-oiled. Let the meat rest and come to room temperature. Heat your smoker up to 250°F. Once preheated, place the brisket in the smoker, and cook fat-side-up, low and slow at 250°F for 8 hours. Remove, wrap in tin foil and place in a cooler for 30 minutes or until ready to eat. You can also wrap in foil and heavy towel and place in microwave if you don't have a cooler. Don't turn microwave on.
