Got any favorite copycat recipes? Here's one that I want to try:

The Hops Jamaican Brewmaster Steak is incredibly good. The recipe I found says "Recipe courtesy Chef Rick Brames of Hops Restaurant" which, if true, means it must be the real recipe. NICE!

Jamaican Marinade Recipe

46 oz. pineapple juice
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups soy sauce
¼ cup Worcestershire sauce
¼ cup cider vinegar
1 tabelspoon garlic salt
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated


Day 1: Select or have your butcher hand cut 4-12 oz. top sirloin steaks.
Place 4 cups of well-stirred marinade into a container. (Marinade must be at a temperature of 34 to 40 degrees before adding steaks. This will prohibit bacteria growth and possible food borne illnesses.)
Note: Pour marinade into container first before adding steaks so steaks can float throughout marinade. Drop 4 top sirloin steaks into marinade.

Day 2: Take lid off steaks and stir very well with gloved hands from bottom to top.

Day 3: Take lid off steaks and stir very well with gloved hands from bottom to top.

Day 4 & 5: Steaks are finished marinating. Steaks must marinate a minimum of 72 hours before being used. Keep steaks in its original container and marinate until you are ready to grill.

Day 6: Steaks must be used this day. Discard after this day. (Shelf life: 5 days marinated.)
