Perfectly balanced with a hint of black pepper and olive oil for added richness, this marinade infuses your steak, roast, or any beef cut with bold, mouthwatering flavor. With just 10 minutes of prep time, the marinade does all the hard work while your beef rests in the refrigerator, soaking up every delicious note.

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the Dr Pepper, soy sauce, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, onion powder, black pepper, and olive oil. Whisk until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is well combined.
Place the beef cuts in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the beef, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to deeply penetrate the meat.
Before cooking, remove the beef from the marinade and let it sit at room temperature for 20-30 minutes. Discard the used marinade.
Cook the beef on a grill, in a skillet, or in the oven according to your preferred method and desired doneness.
Let the cooked beef rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing or serving to retain juices.
Enjoy your flavorful Dr Pepper-infused beef with your favorite sides!
