Time 10m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons liquid smoke flavoring
¼ cup lime juice
½ cup tequila
¼ cup vegetable oil
¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Place the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and cayenne pepper into a mixing bowl. Whisk in the liquid smoke, lime juice, tequila, vegetable oil, and cilantro until evenly blended.
  • To use the marinade, pour into a resealable plastic bag, and add 1 1/2 to 2 pounds of meat. Squeeze out the excess air, seal, and marinate in the refrigerator 4 to 6 hours before cooking as desired. Grilling over charcoal is best, but a gas grill will do fine as well.

This is my new go-to marinade for grilled meats. It's so simple, but it always delivers. The smoky, tangy flavor is perfect for summer cookouts.

This marinade is a game-changer! I used it on some flank steak and it turned out so tender and flavorful. The smokiness from the chipotle peppers and the acidity from the lime juice really complemented each other.
