This recipe was adapted from a Mormon guy I work with. It rendered the meat beyond tender and flavorful! No offense is to be taken, because some of the best food I have eaten has come out of Mormon kitchens. It was just a bit of a cliche because of the sprite. Mormons like to cook with soda pop. Some time I may even post about the wonderful culinary world of Mormons according to Julie, who knows?
Miraculous Mormon Meat Marinade “Featuring Sprite”
-2 c. Sprite
-1 c. soy sauce
-1 T. fresh grated ginger
-2 t. fresh minced garlic
-2 T. olive oil
Combine all ingredients in a med bowl. Whisk to combine. Pour in a gallon sized Ziploc, add your favorite meat. I have tried it and liked it with chicken, pork, and beef. Let sit in marinade anywhere from 4 to 24 hours. Grill, and then EAT IT!
