I found a beef jerkey marinade recipe a long time ago that I use to make all the time. Everyone went crazy over it and I now can not find it. It is possible that it came from this site. Here are the ingredients as I remember them, I think. I might have doubled the recipe here. Any help...

Hi all, It's been a VERY long time since I've been on here. Unfortunately, I lost my passion for cooking as I have since had a child and funds are very tight. Cooking has become a chore for me. I don't get home until 6:30 every night and then have to get a healthy cheap dinner on the table...

Just a few of the dishes we have cooked.

Leftovers from yesterday. I couldn't decide between spaghetti or lasagna so I decided to combine the 2 and made a baked spaghetti lasagna with italian sausage. Will make some more garlic bread tonight.

tied some bacon on a roast, set on top of onion rings. Slowly cooking in oven. Going to make a onion gravy with the drippings. Serving with roasted fall root veggies also some mushroom rice.

Thanks, I'm going with a slow roast with onion gravy, I'll pick up another cut of meat to cook rare.

Can I cook a bottom round roast rare? I've done it with a top round, but from some of the recipes I'm reading it's suggested to cook it low and slow, more like a pot roast style. My plan was to tie on some bacon set the roast onto some sliced onions, cook at high temp to sear the outside, turn...
