Researchers find marinading meat in beer before grilling can reduce cancer-causing chemicals

As barbecue season approaches, researchers have discovered an unlikely ingredient that could improve the safety of your meat - letting it swill in beer. They say that letting meat marindade in pilsner can help reduce the formation of potentially harmful cancer-causing substances in grilled meats. They say pilsner and black beer are most effective, halving the amount of Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, which have been linked to colorectal cancer.

“...marinading meat in beer before grilling...”

Does it HAVE to be in that order?

I prefer marinading myself before, during and after. A beer a day is beneficial to your health.

I figure I’m good until sometime in 2042.

basically saying beer stops more flavor molecules from forming during browning/searing.

This is really old news. Its been know for a long time that marinating meat in almost anything will cut down on chances of cancer. Of course I marinate everyhting in citrus juice and beer or wine or whatever is handy. :-)

Maybe instead of chemotherapy, we need to inject cancer cells with beer.

I have a fantastic recipe for grilled pork loin that uses a paste of salt, pepper, rosemary, fresh garlic and olive oil.

It’s spelled: marinating.... not marinading.

Try marinading with a lager so as to not overwhelm the palate with too many strong flavors.

Your wish is my command...

Rosemary Grilled Pork Loin

6 cloves garlic, peeled
1 bunch fresh rosemary, stemmed (about 1/4 cup leaves)
1 tablespoon coarse salt (kosher or sea)
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 boneless pork loin roast (about 2 pounds)

Combine the garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper in a mortar and pestle and pound to a smooth paste, then work in the oil. If you don’t have a mortar and pestle, combine all the ingredients in a spice mill or mini chopper and process to a puree. (I use a blender for this step.)

Using a long, sharp knife, cut the pork roast almost in half lengthwise, starting at one side. Open out the meat as you would a book, then cut a lengthwise pocket down the center of each side, starting and ending about 1/2 inch from each end and cutting almost all the way through to the other side. Spread half the herb paste over the surface and into the opckets of the opened-out roast, then bring the sides together so the meat resumes its original shape. Tie the roast at 1-inch intervals with butcher’s string, then spread the remaining herb paste over the entire surface, if desired, loosely cover the roast with plastic wrap and let it marinate in the refrigerator for 2 to four hourse, bringing it to room temperature while you preheat the grill.

Set up the grill for indirect grilling, placing a drip pan in the center, and preheat to medium. When ready to cook, oil the grill grate. Place the roast on the hot grate over the drip pan, cover the grill, and cook until the internal temperature registers 150-160 degrees (about 1-1 1/2 hours).

Transfer the roast to a cutting board or platter and let stand for 5 minutes, then remove the string and cut the roast into thin crosswise slices. Serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.

I LOVE BEER! I love beer so much that when there is no milk in the morning I have used beer on my corn flakes. No sugar or frosted flakes as that would be gross.

When I go to meet my maker I want to be buried in a man size keg. Fill it up with beer and pressurize it. In 2 or 3 thousand years they will dig me up and I’ll be famous as Beeramuse Manamuse Maxamuse .
