Cooking With Beer: Backdraft Flank

Sometimes cooking with beer works sometimes it does not.  This is the first recipe I developed myself for the blog.  Developing a recipe involves a great deal of trial and error, but perseverance will result in success.  I know summer is now officially over but as football season is getting started a few of you may need a good tailgate recipe.

Here is a recipe I recently tried out that worked well:

1 Flank Steak

Combine for 12 hours in zip lock bag.
Grill to desired doneness.  (I grilled it for about 20 minutes on low coals)
Make sure you rest your meat.  If you do not know how to do this, then you really should not be allowed in the kitchen.  Also, cutting flank steak across the grain will generate a better mouthfeel as you chew on it.

Paired with: Backdraft Brown of course!

  1. Thanks -- we'll try it! Backdraft Brown makes a good marinade! We also use it in bread, chocolate cake, and even homemade mustard.

    Cheers,

  2. I love flank steak! I have an electric grill so I might add a little liquid smoke to see if it is similar to what charcoal could do.
