By dr_pill

Ingredients

• 12 ounces beer
• 2 tbsp. olive oil
• 1 garlic clove, peeled and smashed
• 2 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp whole cloves
• 1 1/2 pounds raw lean flank steak, 1 inch thick, washed and patted dry

Preparation

Step 1

In a 9 x 13 inch glass baking dish, combine beer, oil, garlic, lemon juice, sugar, salt and cloves. Add steak. Cover dish and marinate in refrigerator turning once or twice, for at least 2 hours up to 24 hours.

Use broiler or grill to cook about 3 to 4 minutes per side for medium rare, longer until desired doneness. Remove meat and cover with alumninum foil and let stand for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, pour remaining marinade in a sauce pan, bring to a boil and cook until all the alcohol burns off, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Thinly slice steak against the grain and serve with sauce.
