    ISO Beef Jerkey Marinade

    I found a beef jerkey marinade recipe a long time ago that I use to make all the time. Everyone went crazy over it and I now can not find it. It is possible that it came from this site. Here are the ingredients as I remember them, I think. I might have doubled the recipe here. Any help...

    Checking back in, it's been a long time

    Hi all, It's been a VERY long time since I've been on here. Unfortunately, I lost my passion for cooking as I have since had a child and funds are very tight. Cooking has become a chore for me. I don't get home until 6:30 every night and then have to get a healthy cheap dinner on the table...

    Need Help With Measurements

    Thanks, I guess I can just put it into a big pasta pot then. It's only rice, liquid, veggies and spices. May add it to some eggs and make a fritatta out of it with some cheese for lunch tomorrow.

My plan was to tie on some bacon set the roast onto some sliced onions, cook at high temp to sear the outside, turn...
