Steak Cerveza Recipes

JUICY & FLAVORFUL BEER MARINATED STEAK

Steps:

• Prepare a non-reactive container or freezer bag appropriately sized for the steak(s). Thinly slice shallot, mince or roughly chop the garlic. Pick the thyme leaves (optional).
• Add all marinade ingredients to container (beer should be last) and whisk until well combined. Add steak and make sure it is well covered with marinade.
• Marinate for 3 to 24 hours, covered and refrigerated. Occasionally move the steak around to ensure all of its surfaces are adequately accessed by the marinade. Bring to room temperature before cooking.
• Heat grill (or pan/griddle) to medium-high to high heat. Scrape marinade off the steak surface and discard. Pat dry steak and season lightly with salt and pepper. Grill or sear for about 3-5 minutes per side, flipping once until your desired doneness is reached. (See steak temperatures below).
• Remove from the grill and rest the steak before slicing/serving. You may lightly cover it with foil while resting.

BEER STEAK

Steps:

• Place the steaks in a large, shallow container with a lid. Season each side of the steaks with the salt and lemon pepper. Gently pour the beer over the steaks (making sure the seasoning doesn't wash off). Cover, and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
• Preheat grill for high heat.
• Lightly oil grill grate. Place steaks on grill, and discard beer marinade. Cook for 5 minutes per side, or to desired doneness.

BEER AND BROWN SUGAR STEAK MARINADE

Steps:

• Preheat grill for high heat.
• Use a fork to poke holes all over the surface of the steaks, and place steaks in a large baking dish. In a bowl, mix together beer, teriyaki sauce, and brown sugar. Pour sauce over steaks, and let sit about 5 minutes. Sprinkle with 1/2 the seasoned salt, pepper, and garlic powder; set aside for 10 minutes. Turn steaks over, sprinkle with remaining seasoned salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and continue marinating for 10 more minutes.
• Remove steaks from marinade. Pour marinade into a small saucepan, bring to a boil, and cook for several minutes.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill steaks for 7 minutes per side, or to desired doneness. During the last few minutes of grilling, baste steaks with boiled marinade to enhance the flavor and ensure juiciness.

BEER-MARINATED GRILLED SKIRT STEAK

Steps:

• In a wide, shallow glass baking dish, scatter half of the orange slices, half of the onion slices and half of the garlic pieces on the bottom of the dish. Sprinkle the steak all over with salt and pepper and put in the dish on top of the orange and onion slices. Scatter the remaining orange, onion and garlic over the steak and pour in the beer and soy sauce. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate for 1 hour at room temperature or up to overnight in the refrigerator.
• Prepare a barbeque on medium-high heat or preheat a broiler. Remove the meat from the marinade and discard the marinade. Grill the steak to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Serve as desired.

SUNNY'S MICHELADA SKIRT STEAK TACOS WITH CERVEZA PICO

Steps:

• For the marinade: Add the beer, tomato sauce and oil to a large resealable bag. Squeeze the limes in, then drop them in the bag. Add the steaks, then sprinkle with salt and pepper and seal. Marinate at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours. Remove the steaks from the bag and discard the contents. Pat steaks dry on both sides and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
• For the pico: Add the tomatoes, beer, cilantro, onion, lime juice, hot sauce, radishes, jalapenos and a pinch of salt and pepper to a large bowl. Drizzle with some olive oil, then toss and let rest at room temperature until ready to use.
• For the rub: Preheat a grill or griddle to medium-high heat. Add the chile lime seasoning, chile powder and zest to a small bowl. Sprinkle the seasoning all over the steaks and rub into both sides. Lightly oil the grill grates. Place steaks on the grill, smooth-side down, and cook, flipping midway through, for about 8 minutes total. Remove steaks to a plate, then cover gently with aluminum foil and let rest at least 5 minutes. Thinly slice steaks against the grain along the length. Make tacos with warmed tortillas and prepared pico.

STEAK WITH BEER-BRAISED ONIONS

Steps:

• Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until crisp, about 6 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil, then add the onion and cook until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the thyme sprigs, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook until the onion is lightly browned, about 5 more minutes. Add the beer, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until reduced by three-quarters, about 15 minutes. Increase the heat to high, pour in the beef broth and simmer until thickened, about 2 more minutes; season with salt and pepper. Discard the thyme.
• Meanwhile, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the noodles and cook as the label directs, adding the peas in the last 2 minutes of cooking. Drain and return to the saucepan. Stir in 1 tablespoon butter and season with salt and pepper; keep warm.
• Season the steaks with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon each olive oil and butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook the steaks until lightly browned and just cooked through, about 1 minute per side. Serve with the noodles; top with the braised onions and parsley.
