Grilling is a fast way to get dinner on the table.  But it doesn’t always have to be the same!  Here are 20 marinade recipes you can use to bring a variety flavors to your table.  To save time and money, I buy bulk meat and then freeze in packages with the marinade.  During the week I pull out the marinated packages, defrost and grill.
