 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    1      Cup           Brown Sugar
    1      Cup           Soy Sauce
    1      Cup           Sake -- * see note
                         Fresh Ginger Root -- grated
                         Garlic Cloves -- diced/pressed
 
 * or dry white wine or vodka.
 
 put thin cut strip steak or chicken parts (especially huge
 quantities of wings) in marinade and soak overnight.  Best if
 grilled on the BBQ, but can be baked (usual meat 350 F for an
 hour a lb.)
 
 For the truly lazy (we prefer to think of ourselves as the
 "time-challenged", Italian dressing on a (cheap) steak adds more
 variety to the flavor.  I can't verify any tenderizing qualities,
 though.
 
 NOTES:
 
 The only marinade I've seen that tenderizes the meat is a
 homemade Teriyaki recipe a college roommate from Hawaii used.
 I think it was the high alcohol content.
