You’re trying to do it all by yourself
Cooking is a team effort. Marinades go grown because you’re trying to chop the onions, chill the beer, light up the coal, and greet your guests all by yourself. Any successful dinner party or evening around the grill relies on you putting together a team.
You might want to be the perfect host, but trust me, people want to help. No one wants to watch you do everything. If you let others help out, you can calmly marinate your meat with all the attention it deserves.
Marinating Meat Is All About Creativity
Be creative and have fun. When you marinate meat, you’re infusing it, not only with flavor but with your personality, so be insightful, think things through, and make marinades your own.
The food will taste better because it will feel like it was prepped and cooked by you. Take notes of what works and what doesn’t and become a grill master one marinade at a time.
