Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup (none)
dry mustard
2 tablespoons (none)
black pepper
2 teaspoons (ground)

Instructions
1
In a large glass bowl or a zip-lock bag, whisk together the vegetable oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, dry mustard, black pepper, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, and lemon juice until well combined.
2
Add the steaks or beef tenderloin to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours, preferably overnight for maximum flavor infusion.
3
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or your oven to 350°F (175°C).
4
For grilling: Remove the beef from the marinade and let any excess drip off. Grill the steaks for about 6-8 minutes per side for medium-rare, basting with the marinade occasionally.
5
For roasting: Place the marinated beef tenderloin in a baking dish and pour the remaining marinade over the top. Roast in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for approximately 40-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 140°F (60°C) for rare. For a whole tenderloin (4-6 lbs), roast at 425°F (220°C) for 45-60 minutes for rare.
6
For medium-well, bake the tenderloin at 350°F (175°C) for about 2 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
7
Allow the meat to rest for about 10 minutes before slicing to retain its juices. Serve and enjoy!
