While each tip can mostly stand alone, it is best to read them all and incorporate them into an overall assault on the grill. Be sure to have your assault well fortified with your favorite beverage! Today's tip is: Using Great Homemade Marinades

Depending upon the type of meat you are cooking on the pit, take a look at the type of liquids you are using to marinate or baste with. While these are not hard and fast rules, consider using the following in preparing marinades and /or basting sauces:

Poultry Delicate meat - needs delicate flavors	Apple juice, cranberry juice or white grape juice
Pork Tolerant meats which can take many flavors	Apple cider or red wine vinegar mixed 50/50 with a light oil (peanut/canola/sesame,etc.)
Beef Bold meats - need bold flavors	Beer, ale red wine.
