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

The researchers grilled samples of pork marinated for four hours in Pilsner beer, non-alcoholic Pilsner beer or a black beer ale, to well-done on a charcoal grill.

Black beer had the strongest effect, reducing the levels of eight major PAHs by more than half compared with unmarinated pork.

"Thus, the intake of beer marinated meat can be a suitable mitigation strategy," say the researchers.

The study appears in ACS' Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.
