I don’t know whether most of you already know this or not but it was new to me so I thought I’d share it just in case.
If you find some steak on special offer (any kind that’s suitable for marinating - beef, lamb, pork etc), you can make up the whole batch in individual bags, seal ‘em and freeze ‘em.
I tried it with some pork recently. I just marinated an extra couple of loins along with the ones I was using that day, popped them in a freezer bag, tied it up with a good tight knot (which you would anyway if you’re freezing it) and put it in the freezer. Then all I had to do when I wanted it later was defrost it and chuck it in the pan - no waiting around for hours while it marinates cos it was already done!
Why didn’t I think of that before?

Hi there-It is the sort of tip that sounds so obvious too-I must try it, a great tip!
My mum does that! Sounds sensible to me :)
@ Sharon Rose. I'm glad I wasn't the only one who didn't think of the obvious :)
@ Frugal Trenches. Your mum's obviously quicker off the mark then me :)
Going to try this next time we stock up on meat from costcos!
