Coke as a steak marinade, say what?! My boss recently told me about this and I was skeptical, but did some research online and found several recipes. I took bits and pieces from a few different recipes and created my own version. The acidity in the soda really breaks down a tough cut of meat...I tried with flank steak and it worked pretty well as a tenderizer even though I only gave it 3 hours. I would definitely marinate overnight when I try this again. (There is no Coke taste whatsoever.)
Ingredients:
12 oz. Coca-Cola
1/4 cup white vinegar
1/3 cup EVOO
2 garlic cloves, crushed
I eye-balled the seasonings to my liking:
palm-full of Montreal Steak
red pepper flakes
ground mustard
dash of cayenne
whole peppercorns
Directions:
Mix all ingredients well and pour into a plastic zip-loc bag with your choice of meat. Marinate in the fridge overnight. Let meat rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before grilling.
