Whiskey Marinade

One of my blog followers lives in Germany. She was an au pere for our son and daughter-in-law in 1998. The family has kept in touch since that time. Today Meli is married and a mother. Her husband Leo enjoys cooking and often is in the kitchen with his wife. Yesterday Meli posted on facebook they were enjoying a Whiskey BBQ tonight. I asked if they would share the marinade recipe which I received this morning. Thank you Meli and I am sure any of the readers who use it will say thank you.
Leo's Whiskey Marinade
Lime slices and lime juice
3/8 cup whiskey (any brand)
1 tablespoon Tex-Mex spices
3 - 4 tablespoons olive oil
salt
3 tablespoons vinegar
***
Mix the ingredients and place the meat and marinade in a plastic bag. Do not allow to marinade several hours as the acid in the lime juice and vinegar tenderizes and can breakdown the protein into an undesirable texture.
Thank you Meli.
