This is an absolutely delishious marinade i accidentally made up in a hurry. I only marinated my beef for 2 hours - but if I had given it overnight it would have been stupendous. The herbs are at your discretion - a little goes a long way.

1 tablespoon cayenne
1 pinch dry chile

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: For best results, select a cut of beef that has good marbling, such as chuck roast, flank steak, or skirt steak.
  • Use a good quality red wine: The type of red wine you use will affect the flavor of the marinade. Choose a wine that you enjoy drinking, as the flavors will be imparted to the beef.
  • Don't over-marinate the beef: Over-marinating can toughen the beef. For best results, marinate the beef for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours.
  • Cook the beef to your desired doneness: The cooking time will depend on the cut of beef you are using and the desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the beef is cooked to your liking.
  • Let the beef rest before serving: After cooking, let the beef rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
