1
Choose your favorite cut of meat.
-
2
In my family we use chuck because it is very inexpensive and badly NEEDS tenderizing.
-
3
Take a small-tipped paring knife and puncture the meat on both sides several times.
-
4
Doing this helps get flavor into the meat, not just on the surface.
-
5
Place the meat in a glass pan.
-
6
(I've never seen it, but I have heard that acidic liquids can do damage to your metal cookware.)
-
7
In another bowl, mix one part rum (We use Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum, though the Coconut one is really good too.)
-
8
to two parts cola (don't use Pepsi because it is too sweet).
-
9
Pour the mixture over your meat (make sure that the meat is covered by the liquid).
-
10
Cover and let sit for at least two hours in the refrigerator.
-
11
Make sure to turn the meat at least once.
-
12
We usually have some grilled vegetables with this as well.
-
13
Choose your favorite summer vegetables and place on a sheet of buttered aluminum foil, leave half of the foil sheet empty so it can be used to created a packet.
-
14
On top of the vegetables place one tablespoon of margarine or butter, and one cube of ice.
-
15
Sprinkle garlic salt, onion powder, and rotiserrie chicken seasoning over the vegetables.
-
16
Fold uncovered part of foil over the vegetables to form a packet and seal.
-
17
Get your grill nice and hot and place vegetable packets on.
-
18
Pull the meat from the refrigerator.
-
19
Take meat out of the marinade and place on a plate.
-
20
Rub a small amount of freshly ground pepper and salt into the meat.
-
21
Put meat on the grill...mix yourself a rum and coke and use a little of it to keep the flames off of the meat.
-
22
Cooking time depends on your grill.
-
23
The steaks can also be done in the kitchen but are so much more fun out in the yard.
-
24
Enjoy one of my families favorites and have a great summer.
