Notes

  • If doing red meat, utilize a Dark/Amber Lager. My preference is Modelo Negra or Dos Equis Amber
  • If doing a lighter meat (pork or chicken), utilize a light lager. Modelo, Dos Equis, Miller Lite, Bud Light, etc.
  • Adjust spice level is needed. Add Jalapenos or Serono Peppers to marinade.
