Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 to 5 pounds ribeye roast
  • 1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/4 cup cranberry sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions

  1. In a large re-sealable bag, mix balsamic vinegar, garlic, cranberry sauce, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, salt, and olive oil.
