Mojo Marinade

I’m not a fan of high fructose corn syrup.

It gives me heartburn.

My move to scratch cook as much as possible is (very) partially driven by a desire to eat food that’s not going to give me heartburn.

Sometimes that desire stems from realizations like ‘oh shit I spent 3 dollars on a bottle of blood orange juice and then discovered I only like to drink it reallllly watered down’ and ‘oh shit what am I going to feed Mid now that hes on a new work schedule?’

I pulled out my copy of The Cook’s Illustrated Cookbook and modified their mojo recipe- and actually modified it this time,  not just tweaked half an ingredient.

Adobo seasoning can be found in the Goya section. It’s an all purpose seasoning blend.

Mojo

1/4 cup blood orange juice (or any orange juice)

1/4 cup white vinegar

1/4 cup olive oil

1 tablespoon adobo seasoning

1 tablespoon garlic powder

Mix all ingredients. Marinate meat overnight in marinade.
