the best steak marinade

This marinade is incredibly tasty. It will work on many meats, but I think it is  best for steak personally.
servings: 8

note the bacon wrapped around this delicately grilled steak...delicious

• 1/3 cup soy sauce
• 1/2 cup olive oil
• 1/3 cup lemon juice--use fresh if possible
• 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons garlic powder
• 1/2 tablespoon montreal steak seasoning
• 2 tablespoons barbeque sauce
• 4 tablespoons dried basil
• 1 1/2 tablespoons dried parsley flakes
• 1 teaspoon ground white pepper (or any kind, really)
• 1/4 teaspoon hot pepper sauce
• 1 tablespoon minced garlic not optional
• italian salad dressing (optional)
• 1 teaspoon liquid smoke (optional)

Put ingredients in the blender, and blend until everything is well mixed. If you don't have a blender, you can put everything in a ziploc bag and shake it for a minute to mix everything up.

Refrigerate meat.  The longer you let the meat marinade, the more flavorful and tender it will be.
