Kenmore Greatest Generation of Grilling Cook-Off entry by James M Eagle, Ohio State Fair

September 8, 2013 by Kenmore


The basis of this marinade comes from an almost 30 yr old recipe that can still stand on its own. The recipe includes vegetable oil, soy sauce, sugar, ground ginger, & a couple other ingredients that really bring various grilled meats to life. The original recipe was submitted to a small church cookbook appraised of the ladies and gentleman of Hilltop Comm. Church, in Mansfield, OH. Hilltop Comm. Church is where my wife’s parents, Dan and Kathy Seitz, were married & have attended since those 30+ years ago. It was Kathy who reprinted the original recipes to give a copy to her daughter Julie, who is my wife. As much as I love that recipe, I knew I could put my own spin on it. I substituted a couple of ingredients for others, & added an add’l few of my favorite spices that I like to use while creatively cooking. I’ve served this marinade to many a friend and family member, with exceptional reviews in return. I hope you find it just as tasty. Enjoy!
