Sun-Kissed Marinade*
Summer time is grill time, and although Certified Angus Beef ® brand steaks and burgers taste great with just

Spice rubs are used to impart flavor. Use on tender cuts like the flat iron and the top sirloin.
Add a rub just before grilling, because salt in the rub will pull moisture from the beef.
Marinades are liquid seasonings with an acid base (like lemon juice or vinegar). They infuse flavor and help tenderize meat.
A marinade is applied to meat and refrigerated for several hours. Be sure to keep food safety in mind, by marinating in the
fridge and discarding extra marinade after the beef is put on the grill.
Marinating time varies with the amount of acid used and the type of beef you choose. More acidic marinades require less
time with the beef.
