8flow.gif (538 bytes)1 pt. Wesson oil
1 qt. 7up
1 pt. soy sauce
1 Tb. horseradish
1 Tb. garlic powder
Combine ingredients. Put in a large plastic bowl with lid. Marinate for 18 to 24 hours. Barbecue slowly. Turn frequently. Meat is done when white, when you cut in center. Baste in fresh marinade with each turn.
I have cut down the amount of oil in this recipe and still had good success.

Eva's too lazy Marinade
One of the best marinades I have used for chicken has been using the Good Seasons Italian Dressing made fresh. I just make it up and marinade chicken breast in it for about 4-8 hours. It's really yummy, moist and tender
.

A favorite marinade for chicken is to bathe a cut up fryer overnight in buttermilk. Makes wonderful fried chicken!
For a yummy & easy fruit salad sauce put about a cup of a favorite fruit juice in a small pan with sugar to your taste. Add 1-2 Tbs. cornstarch & cook 'til thick. Pour over fruit & chill.

8fire.gif (568 bytes)BBQ thats simple & especially good when baking the meat:
2 C ketchup
2 Tbs liquid smoke
2 C brown sugar
1/2 Tsp garlic powder
1/2 C finely chopped onions
Bring to simmer & pour over meat to bake.
If using for the grill, simmer 'til reduced.

A great presentation & taste treat sauce is just to add a couple of Tbs of chipotle sauce to sour cream & blend well.
Store in a sqeeze bottle.
Great to serve in swirls on veggies, grilled meats, & wonderful on chili!

Sweet & Sour Sauce from a friend from Thailand:
1 C sugar
1/4 C vinegar
1 Tsp salt
1/2 C water
1 Tbs ketchup
1 Tbs cornstarch mixed with water to get solution.
Mix first four ingredients in small sauce pan.
Using low heat slowly bring to boil.
Add ketchup solution gradually, stirring 'til thickened.
Remove from heat & cool.
This keeps well but doesn't always turn out when I try to double the recipe!

8dragf.gif (555 bytes)BLEU CHEESE DRESSING
1 qt. real mayonnaise 1 cup buttermilk
1 tsp. garlic powder 1 tsp. parsley flakes
3 oz. bleu cheese
Mix together mayonnaise, buttermilk, garlic powder and parsley flakes. Crumble bleu cheese and fold in. Do not use electric mixer or stick blender as mayonnaise will separate. Refrigerate...keeps 3 weeks.

GRILLED FISH
fish of choice ~ we like orange roughy, salmon, tuna, mako shark, mahi mahi, swordfish, amberjack (if using amberjack be sure to remove blood line and pin bones).
olive oil
Cavendars Greek Seasoning or Paul Prudhommes Seafood Magic
brush fish filets with olive oil and sprinkle with either of the products listed above (not both). Amount of time to be allowed for grilling will depend on the thickness of your fish, usually around 4-5 min. per side unless filets are thin. Use a fish basket for orange roughy as it will fall apart and into the fire.
You can put veggies such as zucchini or summer squash (sliced long ways), corn in the shuck, onions brushed with a bit of olive oil on the grill alongside the fish. Roasted peppers add a special touch to any grilled or bbq meal.
