Best and favourite marinade for a tender STEAK ??!
2-3 tablespoons of butter
1/4 cup of Worchestire sauce
diced garlic (to your taste)...we add about 2 tablespoons
1 large lemon juiced....fresh squeezed is the best...I think
and then whatever spices you like
We usually add a little fajita seasoning, onion powder and pepper. I really doesn't need salt because of the butter and worchestire sauce.
Then when the "sop" is melted down you can marinade with it or use as a sauce on top after the Steak is cooked.
The lemon juice really gets the steak tender. The acidity breaks down the toughness in the meat. Lime juice will do the same thing it is just a less flavorful in my opionion.
Answers: My dad came up with this sauce we called "sop". To make it get a small saucepan and melt the following ingredients together
2-3 tablespoons of butter
1/4 cup of Worchestire sauce
diced garlic (to your taste)...we add about 2 tablespoons
1 large lemon juiced....fresh squeezed is the best...I think
and then whatever spices you like

garlic powder and salt
If its a nice piece of meat you don't want to marinate it , less is more. Salt and pepper.
For tougher cuts of meat, like London broil, is more of a marinating meat. Because you want to break down the meat to make it tender.
When I do marinate, I use, soy sauce, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, chopped garlic, salt and pepper.

Now this may sound weird but pickle juice or even better lime juice can solve you problem. also LOW AND SLOW is KEY!!!!!!!!!! Don't forget your salt and you will be in business.

Just a little BBQ sauce at the end of grilling.
