Fats and acids come together to break down the proteins making your meat tender while also coating and marrying all the epic flavors from your seasonings. The fats generally used in marinades are oils while acids can be citrus juices, vinegars, milk, or even beer! Bust open your pantry and fridge and mix together approximately 3 parts oil to 1 part acid, then toss in a couple of tablespoons of Baja Seasonings Street Taco or Chili Limón, and you’re ready to roll! Toss in your favorite cuts of steak or chicken and let it marinate for 6-24 hours for ultimate pitmaster status!
