Steve's Marinate

1 cup Soy Sauce (You can use low sodium if you want to)
1/4 cup Red Wine Vinegar
1 Tablespoon Garlic Powder
1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar

Mix all ingredients together and add meat (Steak, Pork Chops, Chicken Breasts, etc.). The recipe says to marinate for 2 hours, but I like to marinate overnight, about 12-24 hours.
We marinated steaks in this one time while we were canoeing and grilled them over an open fire and they were the best steaks that we'd ever had!!

Definitely going to try this one Diana!

My Homemade Potato Salad



I don't measure I do everything by eye, its all according to taste .


I boil 5lbs potatoes with skins on until cooked

Once cool I take skins off and cut into cubes into a bowl

I put some white vinegar not to much or it will be tart

salt , pepper to taste

Then I put mayo once again according to how you like it, I don't like to much mayo, not dry either

I cut up a small onion , mix in

shred a carrot and put some in

the trick is a little sugar to sweeten it

some dill weed sprinkle some in

mix all the above well , then top it with more shredded carrots and dill weed to finish it off. Refridgerate to make cold.


It is delicious when I make it or bring it to someones bbq it goes fast.. Enjoy!

Angie Pasta salad will follow I promise lol
