Easy Red Wine Marinade for Beef

How easy is it to get dinner on the table and all of your other tasks and chores completed? Quite easy with our Easy Red Wine Marinade for Beef! Quick to put together, and a delicious dinner for the whole family to enjoy.

Oven dinners can't be beat for busy times!

When time is short, often the easiest dinner is one safely tucked into the oven to cook, while you complete other chores. Often with so much to get done, a beef roast with this Easy Red Wine Marinade for Beef, roasting in the oven, and a list of chores to finish, seem like the perfect pair! 

As it happens, Thyme and garlic are delicious pair, add in a bit of red wine and a splash of Balsamic vinegar for tenderness and you have a delicious marinade. You will want to let the roast marinate 24 to 36 hours (and honestly, longer will not hurt!) before seasoning liberally with salt and pepper and placing it in the oven to roast. 

Once the roast is in the oven, before you know it, dinner and your list of chores will be done...

Ingredients needed for this recipe:
You will also need the following:
  • measuring cups

  • large freezer bag
Now we are ready to begin!
