My family and I absolutely LOVE this recipe. I lost it years ago and when I did a search on the ingredients I remembered, I found it. I came from a small recipe book put out by Benson & Hedges of all small inns. Thank you so much for posting it so I could find it again. I am making the marinade tomorrow.

<p>I am one of the early members of Zaar joining in October 2001. It was instantly my favorite site even though there were only about 5000 recipes. Back then the original owners Troy and Gay ran the site and they had a lot of interaction with the members. I miss them. <br /> <br />Through the years it still remains to this day my favorite go to site and the one that I send all of my friends and family to when they need anything.</p>
