Preparation

Step 1

For the marinade, combine cola, pineapple juice, vinegar, whiskey, brown sugar, chopped garlic, ginger, and Worcestershire in a 9×13-inch baking dish. Score steak and place in marinade, turning to coat. Cover dish and chill at least 2 hours, turning halfway through. Remove steak from dish, reserving marinade for Whiskey Cola BBQ sauce. Lightly pat steak dry.

Preheat grill to high. Brush grill grate with oil.

For the spice mix, combine paprika, thyme, salt, granulated garlic, cayenne, and black pepper. Rub spice mix onto steak.

Boil reserved marinade, ketchup, onion, and jalapeño in a saucepan over high heat until thick, about 30 minutes. Strain sauce and discard solids before basting or serving.

Grill steak about 6 minutes, then flip and baste with Whiskey Cola BBQ sauce. Grill steak 5 minutes more, then flip and baste again; grill 1 minutes more for medium-rare. Let steak rest 5 minutes before slicing against the grain. Serve steak with remaining Whiskey Cola BBQ sauce.
