Beer Marinade for Beef

Measure and gather all ingredients: cayenne pepper, garlic powder, lemon juice, olive oil, onion powder, prepared horseradish, salt, and wine vinegar. Have your beer of choice ready at room temperature.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, and wine vinegar, whisking them together until slightly emulsified.

Add the garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, and salt to the liquid mixture, stirring well to fully incorporate the dry spices.

Stir in the prepared horseradish, mixing thoroughly until the marinade is uniform and all ingredients are evenly distributed.

Slowly pour in the beer, stirring gently to combine without losing too much carbonation. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or cayenne as desired.

Place your beef cuts into a large zip-lock bag or a shallow non-reactive dish, then pour the marinade over the meat, ensuring all surfaces are well coated.

Seal the bag or cover the dish tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate, allowing the beef to marinate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for deeper flavor penetration.

Remove the beef from the marinade, pat dry with paper towels, and discard the used marinade before proceeding to cook the beef using your preferred method.
