Does mojo marinade require refrigeration?

Question

I'm referring to the poultry marinade you often find in the Latin section of a supermarket... basically a blend of vinegar, citrus juices, and spices. My local supermarket started carrying it in gallon-sized jugs. This is convenient for us because of how much we use it, but it's a bit large to keep in the refrigerator.

I know that most things containing vinegar (hot sauce, etc) don't require refrigeration, but is this case I wasn't so sure because it also contains fruit juices. Is mojo marinade safe at room temperature after having been opened?

Answer 1

I had a small bottle that I didn't refrigerate once...it oxidized....and turned colors. so, I'd put it in the fridge
if you are in a cool area, you might be able to store it in your garage or something over the winter.

Answer 2

I know exactly what your talking about makes all meat taste better lol but to your question no it doesnt need to be in the refigerator if not open but once opened I believe so it can stay out but not for months maybe a week or two cause i think it will spoil

Answer 3

I would put it in smaller containers and refrigerate to be safe. Fruit juices tend to spoil quickly when not refrigerated.

Answer 4

Stick to the safe side and refrigerate it.

Answer 5

Yes, after you open it

Answer 6

yup yup always needs to be refridgerated
