Tenderizing Marinade

Prep Time 10 minutes
Total Time 4 hours 10 minutes

Ingredients
  

  • ¼ cup soy sauce
  • ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2-4 drops of hot sauce

Instructions
 

  • Mix up all of the ingredients in a measuring cup.
  • Using a fork, poke numerous holes into your cut of meat to allow the marinade to penetrate.
  • Slip the meat into a large zip bag, give the marinade one more stir and pour it into the bag with the meat.
  • Squeeze out as much air as possible and then seal the bag. Make sure to distribute the marinade around the meat. Place the bag on a plate in case it leaks.
  • Allow the meat to marinade for at least 4 hours, and overnight if possible. Flip the bag occasionally to allow gravity to help with the penetration of the marinade.
  • Remove the meat from the bag, and retain the marinade to use as a baste.
  • Grill the meat, basting every time you turn it.
