Notes

Can this marinade be stored?

If you make a large batch and keep it in a container, store in the fridge for about 1 month. Any marinade you have used with the pork needs to be discarded.

What other seasoning or flavors can you add to this marinade?

This seasoning can be changed with slight variations to give your pork some nice flavors. Add some red pepper flakes for some heat. Add lemon juice and zest instead of Italian seasoning for some lemon pepper flavors.
