Cooking Steak

Omaha Steaks has partnered with Nebraska’s Lucky Bucket Brewing Co. to develop innovative and flavorful recipes that bring together world-class food and exceptional beer. Using Lucky Bucket’s classic styles and big barrel-aged ales, I’ve crafted a handful of sauces and marinades to pair exclusively with gourmet food from Omaha Steaks. To see more beer-inspired recipes, click here. One of my favorite ways to incorporate beer into food is using it in a marinade. This particular marinade works well with pork or chicken, but can even be used with meatier fish. I used Lucky Bucket Heartland Wheat which they make down the street from our test kitchen. You can use any local wheat beer or Hefewizen style beer. I find this style of beer works very well in this marinade. One of the best things about using a beer in a marinade is that it pretty much guarantees that you will end up with a food that pairs well with the beer that you used. Cheers!
