Moo's Everyday Marinade

I call this her everyday marinade because for years it was the only one Moo relied on for preparing different meats for grilling. The only change occurred in later years when she started using the Good Season's Italian Dressing as the base for her marinade. Granted it made for a good taste (especially with leg of lamb), but I think part of it was the simplicity it offered. This recipe might benefit from the addition of a teaspoon or two of the dry Italian Dressing. I may play with that and get back to you.

½ cup extra virgin olive oil
4 tsps. Worcestershire sauce
½ tsp. fresh ground pepper
½ tsp. dry mustard
¼ tsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. garlic powder
2 Tbls. fresh lemon juice
1 dash Tabasco sauce

Combine ingredients and pour over meat. Allow to sit overnight. This quantity will provide enough marinade for about 3 pounds of meat.
