After the Krispy Kreme Burger, how about a Coca-Cola Steak?
Yeah, someone pointed me at this, and I don't know whether I'm more shocked that someone thought of it, or that I didn't.
Has anyone tried anything like this for a steak marinade? How to Make Coca Cola Marinade (with Pictures) - wikiHow

This is a pretty common technique that I swear I've seen used for decades....I want to say it has roots in hispanic/mexican culture (though I may be pulling that straight out of my butt), so maybe it's more of a west coast phenomena. Similarly, I've been taught to use a can of root beer when making pulled pork, and I've also heard of a chicken marinade using 7-Up....though I don't know if there's some specific set of rules for your meat/soda marinade pairing.

Number 2 seems like it could possibly be a reasonable facsimile of Korean BBQ marinade if you added a tablespoon or two of sesame oil

Cheerwine is a pretty popular addition to BBQ sauce around here.

Been around for as long as I can remember (as have most of those other variations mentioned in the thread so far)

Common staple in bbq sauces, as others have said.

Whatever happened to the old tried and true ALCOHOL marinades? That's when meat tastes sweet. I love marinating steaks in beer, herbs, and spices.
Oh, and grilled fish. Beer, herbs, spices, and lemon wrapped together with the fish in aluminum foil make for a tasty, tasty meal.

7-up is great for chicken or pork. Staple Filipino grilling ingredient.

Dr. Pepper More than Mesquite Marinade
I took at smoking class at the KC Culinary Center a few years ago and the guys who teach the class use their own Dr Pepper marinade but you can actually buy it as well. |

Yep, when I saw the cola marinade, my first thought was the common Dr. Pepper stuff. /tk

I'm a big fan of a coke marinade for hams and pulled pork.
But if you are putting anyhing that harsh on a stak I hope is a flank or shoulder cut. A good cut of beef would be ruined |

When I slow-cook chicken, I make a sauce that uses barbecue sauce, orange juice, and honey. Turns out really well, and is one of only two things I cook that other people actually ask for.

I was at a restaurant yesterday that had Cheerwine fried chicken.
I had neither the courage nor the stomach to try it. |

I had some Dr Pepper canned beans. It had a different taste, not bad, but I couldn’t identify the Dr Pepper taste.

I bought a can of them a year or two ago. Same thing - I was expecting something better than I got.

I prefer my steaks sloppy.
