Balsamic Marinade

• A few splashes of balsamic vinegar
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Sea salt and black pepper to cover all sides
• Thyme (fresh or otherwise)

For steak, pork, and chicken.

If you want to reach more meat faster, go ahead and add some olive oil to the mix (along with more of everything else), which will allow for a more traditional, liquid marinade.
