Maple Monday-Maple Apple Marinade

This semi-sweet mariade is delicious on chicken, pork chops and even burgers. A couple of  pineapple slices before cooking the meat only makes things better!


Maple Apple Marinade

2 cups apple cider

1 cup apple cider vinegar
1 cup maple syrup
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons sage
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Combine the cider, vinegar, syrup, oil, and orange juice in a small bowl. Stir in the brown sugar until dissolved. Add sage, cayenne, salt and pepper and stir to combine.
In a shallow glass baking dish, place the meat you are marinating. Pour the marinade over, cover, and refrigerate, turning once, for 3 hours.
