- 2 lbs Ribeye thin cut. You can replace with flank steak or another thin cut of meat
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 1/2 cup dark beer
- 1 tbsp soy sauce
- 6 cloves of garlic
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp allspice
- 1/4 white onion
- salt to taste
- 1 tbsp olive oil
To make the marinade, start by combining all of the ingredients except for the steak in a blender and blend until somewhat smooth.
Pour the marinade over the steak in a large bowl, cover, and let marinate for at least one hour (longer is better).
Depending on your method for cooking the steak, heat up the grill or a hot pan with the oil.
Once sufficiently hot, add the steak, cooking on both sides for 2-5 minutes or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
Remove from the heat and serve with tortillas, grilled pearl onions, grilled nopales, Mexican rice and refried beans.
