Meat Marinade

I really liked this marinade for beef steak (chuck steak is good) I found that refrigerating this with the meat in the sauce in a plastic sealed bag makes is easier to keep all sides covered. The flavor enhanced the longer it was refrigerated. I also used red wine vinegar, because it is better for the beef. thanks
