1. Score meat or prick surface with fork to let marinade penetrate
2. Acids (wine, vinegar, citrus) make meat mushy if
marinated too long
3. Refrigerate meat while marinating and flip 1/2 way
through marinating
4. Wipe off most of the marinade before cooking to stop
grill flare-ups
5. Never recycle marinade - it's contaminated!
