This is the BEST marinade! I don’t use any other marinade any longer; steaks arte always delicious, AND moist, even well done! Any cut of beef becomes tender and juicy with this recipe!
This is a great recipe, was easy to make and was delicious and tender. Thank you so much.
Always wanted to do a Coca-Cola steak recipe. Only had 3.5 hours to marinate so I added some chopped onions to help further tenderize the meat. Didn’t have garlic cloves but ironically I did have powdered garlic so I used that; turned out alright but wished I had the actual garlic. I’m definitely going to make this again but will have it marinate overnight.
I didn’t have the EXACT ingredients, so I improvised. I used the Pepsi and soy sauce, used whole grain mustard, upped the garlic to about 6 cloves and didn’t have prepared horseradish but I did have fresh, so I grated about an inch-and-a-half. I didn’t have 24 hours, but I let them marinate for about 5 hours. Cooked them on a stove top grill and made sure to let them sit, tented, for about 5-6 minutes. Turned out pretty tasty. Even my roommate, who hates it when I marinate meat, said it was pretty good.
My go to marinade with simple ingredients. Always produces a tender result.
Awesome!! We lived it! Very easy and ingredients that I had on hand!
1st time using recipe….loved it. Meat was tender and grilled just the way I my family likes it.
Used this as a marinade for kebobs, marinated for 24 hours. The sirloin was tender and had a great flavour.
Really good flavor! It’s a keeper!
I liked it but didn’t love it. The whole family ate it though. Would prefer to try a different marinade on steaks next time.

I only made this once, but when I did, boy was it good! I can’t say its the best steak marinade I have ever had but it sure is tasty. The hubby loves it!
I made this for a group at a football party and everyone seemed to enjoy it. It was incredibly easy!
This marinade was perfect for our steaks. Adds just the right amount of flavor.
My family thought this added a nice flavor to the steak. I don’t usually eat red meat but had a few bites to try it. The steak was very moist and tender. I didn’t have time to marinate for 24 hours but did marinate it for 8 hours. Thanks for sharing your recipe!
