If youre using a store bought marinade, then those usually have quite a bit of salt in them, so I wouldnt go more than 6 hours. If youre making a marinade at home, then you can control how much salt you put in it, and you can probably marinate it for a few hours longer. Not too long though, you still want to be able to taste the meat when youre done!

I have been marinading meat for years. I use both homemade and store bought. I usually marinade 24 hours. It's a fact most marinades help to tenderize. It is also important to use an airtight container, such as I use: a zip plastic bag!

Most marinades are pretty salty. The one I make only needs 3 to 4 hours to do the job, anymore than that and it's too salty.

Don't marinade any raw meat more than a few hours. in an air tight container or in a ziplock bag to avoid cross contamination.

I don't suggest you have them in there for more than 12 hours due to they might start to go bad but you could try marinate them in the freezer:)
