Hi y’all…I realize I am a little late here, but I’m behind in checking my mail. I have a couple of marinade recipes I would like to share…
The Garlic marinade is awesome on the steaks. I did a steak w/it Father’s Day & it was good. I reheated the other half of the steak Tues eve, and it was actually better than it was Sunday! I’m not sure where I got the recipe…
The shrimp marinade was shared with me my by my Uncle. He is a (home) gourmet cook, one whole wall in his living room has bookshelves with nothing but cookbooks!
