  1. This was a very good. We all liked it. The flavor was a little milder than we expected, but it was very tasty. It was reminiscent of some Korean marinades I've used, but without the chilis and with olive oil instead of sesame oil. Thanks for sharing this recipe, Barb!
     
  2. Made using the flank of a deer. Used veg. oil and sesame oil. did not use sesame seeds. Marinated for two days. Was absolutely delicious!
     
  3. The only thing I left out were the sesame seeds, didn't have any. I only marinated it 4 hours and it was still wonderful. BBQ'd it 6 mins. per side and it was just right for us med-rare.
     
  4. Left to marinate 24 hours. Good, but the soy sauce overpowered everything else so the overall taste was not as interesting or tasty as I expected. Would probably not do this marinade again, but thanks for posting.
     
  5. Easy and awesome! Thanks so much!

  2. Wow! This is fabulous! Absolutely perfectly spiced and needs no changes. My family thought it was wonderful. I did add onion powder instead of the onions. I think next time I will some sort of fried rice to go with it. The meat was tender and juicy. Just remember to check it frequently so it doesn't overcook. I cooked this in my oven on broil--lowest setting. It took about 10 minutes. Sooo yummy.
