Ingredients

• 0.5 cup soy sauce
• 0.25 cup olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 3 garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 teaspoon red pepper flakes
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and balsamic vinegar. Whisk until the sugar dissolves completely.

Step 2

Add the Dijon mustard and continue whisking until the mixture is well-emulsified.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic, red pepper flakes, black pepper, chopped rosemary, thyme leaves, and lemon zest. Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the herbs and spices.

Step 4

Place your beef or wild game cuts into a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow glass dish.

Step 5

Pour the marinade over the meat, making sure all surfaces are coated evenly. If using a plastic bag, seal it and gently massage the marinade into the meat.

Step 6

Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully permeate the meat.

Step 7

When ready to cook, remove the meat from the marinade and pat it dry with paper towels to promote even browning. Discard the remaining marinade.

Step 8

Prepare your meat using your preferred cooking method—grill, roast, or pan-sear—and enjoy the depth of flavor this marinade imparts.
