MARINADE FOR MEAT

Category: Sauces, Marinades, Spices, Glazes and Rubs

Soak and Baste:
1/2 cup peanut oil or olive oil
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
1/4 cup wine, sherry or sake
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
fresh ginger (optional)
2 cloves garlic, crushed (3 cloves – if you really like Garlic)
2 rounded tsp (or 1 Tbsp) of McCormicks Grill Mate Montreal Steak Seasoning

Mix all ingredients. When the mixture is to be used as a marinade, put the meat into a glass container, or container which will not take on a metal flavor. **Pour the mixture [you may want to reserve some of the marinade for basting the meat, or for stir-frying] over it, and refrigerate overnight. Put a few slices of fresh ginger into the marinade if you have some.

**If you don’t have time to refrigerate overnight, add 1/2 cup vinegar (cider or white) with 1 can of beer or 1 can of Coke. This will tenderize the meat more quickly. Keep in mind that the Coke will sweeten the meat, so if you don’t want “sweet meat” then use the vinegar and beer mixture.
