- 1 teaspoon pepper freshly ground
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 3 - 4 pounds meat
Mix all ingredients together in a gallon sized self sealing bag.
Trim meat if desired and cut to size, add to bag.
Marinate meat for 1-2 days in the refrigerator and turn meat several times for best results.
Cook meat using desired method and discard marinade.
- Watch “use by date” on raw meat and marinate AND cook before this date
- Shake pineapple juice well before using as the contents separate
- Marinate for at least 24 hours
- Always use a digital meat thermometer and cook meat to the proper internal temperature found on this handy FoodSafety.gov chart
- Always promptly and safely discard used marinade
- Never put marinade that touched raw meat on cooked meat, this is called cross-contamination and should be avoided
- Avoid marinading ground meat like sausage or hamburger, dry seasoning works best sprinkled on or mixed in ground meat
