[It has been a while since anything has popped up in this news group; I hope this inspires some of the rest of you to contribute.] This is a deceptively simple recipe for an excellent summertime marinade for beef. In fact, I served this yesterday to my wife and kids for Mothers Day supper. (No, I didn't serve the marinade; we ate grilled beef strips. Give me a break!) The recipe was given to us by a good friend living in Rochester in trade for the Swedish Meatball recipe that I distributed a few months ago. Marinade Combine: 1/2 cup oil 1 cup catsup 1 garlic clove crushed 1-1/2 tsp Tobasco Sauce 1-1/2 tsp soy sauce 3/4 tsp sugar 1 med. onion, minced salt and pepper to taste Beef Strips Use: 1 to 1-1/4 lbs beef for 2 people 2-1/2 to 2-3/4 lbs beef for 4 people [I use flank steak or good round steak and slice it as though it were cooked London broil.] Place strips in marinade and refrigerate overnight. [Yesterday, I used 2 lbs meat and 2/3 recipe marinade for 4 people.] Grill on charcoal or gas grill until some edges are charred and crisp. Serve with rice or pita bread and salad; cold beer to drink.
