For best results, use fresh pineapple juice. If using canned, opt for 100% juice with no added sugar. This marinade also works well with chicken or pork. Don't over-marinate the beef, as the pineapple juice can break down the meat fibers and make it mushy. 2-6 hours is ideal. Before cooking, pat the beef dry with paper towels to achieve a better sear. Reserve some of the marinade to brush over the beef while cooking for added flavor and moisture.
