Instructions
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, and apple cider vinegar. Whisk together until well emulsified.
Add honey and Dijon mustard to the liquid mixture, and whisk until fully combined.
Stir in the minced garlic, ground black pepper, paprika, and crushed red pepper flakes for a seasoning boost.
Add fresh rosemary and freshly squeezed lemon juice to the mixture, and give it one final stir to evenly combine all the ingredients.
Place your beef or pork cuts (up to 2 pounds) into a resealable plastic bag or shallow dish.
