Marinating 101

In my expertise, the longer you marinate, the higher. As much as a sure level after all! I attempt to marinate in a single day however if you happen to overlook to prep prematurely, you’ll be able to marinate for simply an hour.

Place your hen within the container you’ll be utilizing (you should utilize a big ziplock bag or a glass storage container) and pour the sauce over the hen. I like to ensure every bit of protein is roofed and has a bit of sauce massaged in. Then you definitely simply place the container within the fridge and let it sit till you’re able to prepare dinner.

I like to recommend eradicating the hen from the fridge 10-20 minutes earlier than grilling. Room temp hen cooks extra evenly.

Storing Marinade

You might not wish to use the entire marinade to your hen or possibly you’re making the marinade prematurely earlier than cooking your hen. In that case, this marinade will final a number of weeks if stored in an hermetic container within the fridge. So if you wish to simply marinate and grill a bit of little bit of meat at a time, you’ll be able to!

A normal rule of thumb is that when the marinade is on the uncooked meat, it has been used. Solely retailer contemporary barbecue sauce!
