Marinating Tips

Best to marinade in resealable plastic food bag, a bag will help to cut down on clean up and allow you to turn, to evenly distribute the beef marinade.

You can marinade in plastic, glass, or stainless steel containers, covered with lid.

Don't marinade in aluminum containers or foil, a chemical reaction could spoil the meat.

Don't reuse leftover steak marinade for other food.

Don't use marinade from raw meat unless its boiled first for several minutes.

Always marinade in the refrigerator, never at room temperature.

Tenderizing marinades penetrate about 1/4 inch into the surface of the meat.

The purpose of marinating steaks or chops is to add flavor and in some cases, tenderize meat. Less tender cuts, benefit from a marinade with tenderizing ingredients (food acids or enzymes) and marinating times of 6 to 24 hours, more than 24 hours and the meat becomes mushy. Seasoning provide different and unique flavors. Try different recipes using herbs, spices and sweetener, such as sugar or honey.
