A great marinade/basting sauce for almost everything grilled but beef is balsamic vinegar, orange marmalade( or orange juice concentrate), jalapeno peppers, and plenty of garlic. You could add cilantro and lime juice as well. Make it as sweet and hot as you wish. I used some very hot whole pickled jalapenos - La Morena brand from Mexico( spiced and pickled).
Imagine it on chicken or shrimp or pork cooked on a wood fired weber and have a beer like a Blue Moon Belgian Style Ale w/ it. A little bitter, a little sweet, along w/ the heat.
About Me
- Captain Cook
- A chef by trade, I had a restaurant and bar in the jeweled lake country of Mn for 20 years. A terrifying, yet rewarding endeavor. I remain interested and passionate about food and consider eating to be the ultimate existential experience; we must eat to live, and since we must eat, let us eat well. As the Captain, I explore the world of food at my doorstep, at your doorstep, and beyond the doorsteps of the many cafe's and restaurants of this exquisite Mn lake country. It is a picnic. I remain the Captain because I have no choice. Food has chosen me. I'll tell you about it. I also write a guest column for a local newspaper,the Mille Lacs Messenger, do a food piece for their quarterly magazine, the Compass,and write about outdoor food for Mn Outdoor News and Lake Country Journal magazine. I also teach occasional cooking classes. All food is outdoor food, or should be.
