Best BBQ Marinade Ever!

    BBQ season is well upon us by now and if you're a fan of BBQ sauces or marinades you have to try this. It's been in our family since my dad ripped it out of a newspaper in the 70s and we don't have a barbeque without it!

    You just put all these ingredients in a blender:

    1 tsp chilli powder
    1 tsp celery/garlic salt
    2 tblsp soft brown sugar
    2 tblsp white wine vinegar
    2 tblsp worcester (sp?) sauce
    3 tblsp tomato ketchup
    1/4 pint water
    Tobasco sauce to taste (I lash in a good bit because love it spicy!)

    It's unreal! Marinade your chicken/sausage/burgers/whatever in it before barbequeing and keep basting them while they're cooking. I also pour it all over my food when it's cooked! It's quite runny though so if you want it more like a sauce, just put less water and more ketchup in or else don't bother with the water. We've given the recipe to so many people and they've all loved it.

    I lie this one

    meat:
    thick set of pork ribs
    joint of lamb
    whole chicken

    marinade:
    4 to 5 cloves
    1 tsp cumin
    2 tbs fennel seeds
    1 tsp black pepper
    2/3 tsp salt
    handful of fresh rosemary leaves
    10 fresh bay leaves
    bunch thyme use the tips and leaves
    1 whole bulb of garlic peeled
    peeled zest of an orange
    4 tsp smoked paprika
    half bottle of balsamic vinegar
    juice of 1 orange
    whole bottle of organic ketchup
    olive oil.

    Make marinade
    bash cloves,cumin,fennel seeds,black pepper and salt in a pestle and mortar.
    roughly chop herbs, garlic, orange rind. mix it all with the wet ingredients.

    Meat
    Make sure you score the lamb before you rub this BBQ mixture on it and cut chicken down the backbone then flatten, score the meat and rub in the marinade. Place all meats onto 2 roasting pan ( lamb in one and chicken and pork in the other) cover with foil and put into oven to roast for 1 1/4 hours on about 375F then dip into marinade again and place onto BBQ to crisp, for about 45 min. Be sure to put all the oven roasting juices into a pot to reduce, you could bring any remaining marinade to a boil and add to the pan juices too, use a rosemary bunch to mop or brush the marinade onto the meats as they crisp up.....

    Gawwwwwwwwwd. If I hear/ read anyone else mention that bit.

    Is that the most memorable part of that movie? A man slicing a clove of garlic?? It seems to be. Never mind all the violence and humour, . . theres no humour. But ye know what I mean.

    Sounds great though.
