I couldn't find my regular packaged marinade (Adolph's or Jack Daniels) the other day and chose the McCormick's Mesquite. Oh, was that ever yummy! And the steaks were very tender. I like the ones that only take 15 min. to marinade. I picked up more to have on hand for next time. And so I don't forget what we had used. :D This is my new favorite one.
