Barbecue Marinade

Barbecue marinade is a flavorful blend of ingredients designed to infuse your meats with robust, smoky, and tangy flavors typical of a barbecued meal. Usually packaged in bottles, the most common ingredients of this liquid concoction include vinegar, tomato paste, sugar, spices, and natural smoke flavor. Not only is barbecue marinade essential for grilling, it's also versatile enough to be used in other cooking methods such as baking or pan-frying. It typically requires a few hours of soaking to unlock its full potential, but for those after immediate flavor, it can also be used as a basting or dipping sauce.
