Equipment

  • 1 arithight container or 1 ziplock bag

Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup of soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 2 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • Mix the ingredients and coat the meat with them; the longer you let them marinate in the refrigerator, the more flavor they’ll absorb. Let it marinate for at least a couple of hours, but I prefer to leave it overnight.
  • You can use an airtight container to marinade and flip every couple of hours although I love to do it in a freezer bag or ziplock bag as it occupies less space in the refrigerator. The plastic bag technique is my favorite for marinated beef.
