marinade is used only before meat is cooked. A marinade is used to breakdown tissue fibers and add flavor. After meat is cooked the structure of the tissue is changed and the seasoning only sits on the surface of the meat.

A simple marinade is any Italian salad dressing, pour over chicken, allow to sit for a few hours in fridge and grill. The vinegar tenderizes the meat and the herbs make good flavor.

If you're a whiz in the kitchen and like cooking from scratch, you can make your own marinades using the formula below. There are literally tons of ways to experiment with this!

Marinade from Scratch:

  • one part acid (vinegar, citrus juice, or wine)
  • one part vegetable oil
  • one to two parts aromatics (garlic, herbs, and spices)
  • salt or soy sauce and sugar to taste

Or, if you don't want to do the planning and math, below is a delicious recipe for marinade.

Ingredients:

3/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup worcester sauce
1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 package onion soup mix
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
4 drops liquid smoke

Procedure:

  • Whisk all ingredients together thoroughly.
  • Marinade will taste strong. The stronger it tastes, the more flavor your meat will have.
  • Immerse meat in marinade, moving it around a bit to cover.
  • Refrigerate, covered, for 4 hours, stirring a couple of times.

How long should you marinate steak tips?

If you want it to fully soak in I recommend at least 24 hours. I have an additional technique I sometimes use. Where I'll marinade for 24 hours in the fridge, then freeze the meat without the marinade. Then make a fresh batch of marinade. Take the steak out of the freezer and put into the new marinade as it thaws for 48 hours.
