The following incredible recipe is good for Beef, Pork, Lamb and any Venison marination!
Make sure you marinate the meat for 24 hours, before you roast/bake it at 325 Degrees F in general for an red meat to get a soft, moist and tender meat! For example: 145 Degrees F is good for medium beef, keeping in mind, that always it has to be 5 Degrees F less on the thermometer as it still cooks while resting, so cook it as you want the doneness.
