in shallow dish, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours or
overnight. Remove meat from refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling.
Prepare grill. Remove meat from marinade. Grill beef over medium
coals, basting occasionally, 7 to 8 minutes per side for medium-rare,
pork 12 to 15 minutes, until meat thermometer inserted in thickest
part reaches 160 degrees. Let stand 5 minutes. Slice thin across the
grain. Serve with a black bean salsa.

reduce their rawness. Your guests will never guess the ingredients in
the marinade---it tastes sweeter than you might expect.
