Vermouth Marinade for Chicken and Grilling Tips
Barbecue tips emphasize using marinades to flavor and tenderize meats, with vermouth as a base. Marinades can require up to 48 hours for full flavor, but tomatoes or excess sugar should be avoided long on the grill. End with a boil of excess marinade before serving. Vermouth marinade recipe includes vermouth, red pepper flakes, chicken, lemon juice, and onions.
