Step 1

Place all marinade ingredients in a large mixing cup or bowl. Stir until sugar is completely dissolved.

Step 2

Pour 1 1/4 cup of marinade over the desired type of meat. Cover and refrigerate. Marinate for a minimum of 6 hours or overnight.

Step 3

Pour the remaining marinade into a small pot. Add ketchup and oil. Simmer over medium heat until it thickens into a thin gravy consistency. Stir frequently to prevent sugar from burning.
