Beer-Marinated Steak Wraps: Tender, Grilled, and Packed With Beer-Soaked Flavor

Beer-Marinated Steak Wraps are bold, savory, and ready to wrap up all your grilled cravings. The steak gets soaked in a malty beer marinade with garlic, lime, and spices, then seared hot and sliced thin for wraps layered with crisp veggies, sauces, and fresh herbs.

Whether you’re feeding a crowd or meal-prepping with flavor, these wraps bring heat, balance, and beer-forward bite.

Ingredients (Serves 4–6 wraps)

For the Beer-Marinated Steak

• 1½ lbs flank steak or skirt steak
• ½ cup beer (amber ale, brown ale, or Vienna lager — malty, not hoppy)
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tbsp lime juice
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp cumin
• 1 tsp chili powder
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp black pepper
• Optional: pinch of brown sugar or smoked paprika for added depth

For the Wraps

• 4–6 large flour tortillas or flatbreads
• Shredded lettuce or arugula
• Sliced red onion
• Cherry tomatoes or pico de gallo
• Crumbled feta or shredded cheddar
• Avocado or guacamole
• Sour cream, tzatziki, chipotle mayo, or garlic beer aioli

Instructions

Step 1: Marinate the Steak

1. In a bowl or zip-top bag, combine all marinade ingredients.
2. Add steak and marinate for 1–6 hours in the fridge. Remove and pat dry before grilling.

Step 2: Grill the Steak

1. Preheat grill or cast-iron skillet to high heat.
2. Grill steak 3–5 minutes per side, depending on thickness and desired doneness.
3. Let rest 5–10 minutes, then slice thinly across the grain.

Step 3: Build the Wraps

1. Warm tortillas or flatbreads until pliable.
2. Layer with greens, steak, toppings, and your sauce of choice.
3. Wrap, roll, or fold like a gyro — and serve hot.

Flavor Variations

• Add grilled peppers or onions for fajita-style wraps
• Use tzatziki and cucumber for a Greek-style wrap
• Try shredded cabbage, hot sauce, and pickled jalapeños for a spicy version
• Swap steak for portobello mushrooms or seitan for a beer-marinated veggie wrap

Beer Pairing

In the Marinade

• Amber ale or Vienna lager — malty, toasty, great with grilled meat
• Brown ale or bock for deeper roast character
• Avoid IPAs — bitterness overpowers the marinade

In Your Glass

• Same beer you used in the steak
• Pale ale or session IPA for contrast with rich fillings
• Cream ale or kölsch with lighter toppings
• Dark lager or porter if using chipotle or smoky sauces

Final Thoughts

Beer-Marinated Steak Wraps are fire-kissed, flavor-packed, and endlessly customizable.

With juicy, beer-soaked steak, bold toppings, and your favorite flatbread or tortilla, they’re easy to build and even easier to crush with a cold pint on the side.

Cheers to grilled meat, malty marinades, and wraps that eat like a feast! 🥙🥩🍺🔥
