Ingredients

  • 1 cup Dr Pepper
  • 2 tbsp. BBQ Sauce plain (use your favorite)
  • 4-5 Garlic Cloves peeled and smashed
  • 1 tsp. Kosher Salt or to taste
  • Pinch Crushed Red Pepper
  • 1-2 lbs. of Flank Steak cut into long 1 inch wide strips

You will also need

  • 12-15 Skewers 10 inch, soaked in water
  • Grill Spray to reduce sticking

Instructions

  • Add the Dr Pepper, BBQ sauce, garlic cloves, kosher salt, and the crushed red pepper to a medium bowl. Stir well to combine the ingredients.
  • Slice the flank steak into long strips, about 1 inch wide. If the flank steak is very thick, cut it into strips, and then slice each strip in half lengthwise, to make two equal, long pieces.
  • Add the steak to a large, re-sealable bag. Pour the Dr Pepper marinade over the meat and reseal the bag. Massage the meat gently; ensuring the entire steak is coated with the marinade.
  • Refrigerate the steak for at least 2-3 hours, turning the bag occasionally so that both sides of the meat are equally saturated with the marinade.
  • Remove the steak from the refrigerator and let it sit out for just a few minutes to take the chill off prior to cooking.
  • Remove the steaks from the bag and discard the marinade. Thread the steak strips onto the skewers.
  • Spray the BBQ grates with a grill spray to prevent sticking.
  • Grill the steak skewers over moderate heat until the meat is charred in spots, and the steak reaches the desired doneness – about 5-7 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the meat.
  • Arrange the skewers on a platter and serve.
