Meats in marinade

Take your favorite cuts of meat, add your favorite marinade - put meal-sized portions of meat and plenty of marinade in a gallon ziplock bag, squeeze out the air, and freeze! The meat will continue to marinate in the freezer, and the liquid protects the meat from things like freezer burn. To prepare - simply thaw it out and grill, broil, or whatever the cut of meat calls for.

This preparation method saves time, money, and produces a much more flavorful piece of meat!

Examples:

Quick & Lazy BBQ Pork Chops

Place 4-6 pork chops in a gallon ziplock bag. Dump in a bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce. Work the sauce through the bag until chops are coated thoroughly. Squeeze air out of the bag and freeze. Yes - it's that simple!

Lemon-Rosemary Grilled Chicken

Whisk together 1/4 cup EVOO, 1/4 cup lemon juice, 2 Tbsp. honey, 1 tsp. dried rosemary, dash garlic powder, salt & pepper to taste. Place 4-6 boneless, skinless breast halves in a ziplock bag, dump in the marinade, work through the chicken, squeeze out air, and freeze. This one's a family favorite!
