Robbie’s Fish Marinade

Number of Servings: enough for 6–8 pieces of fish

An excellent recipe from Robbie Robertson (no, not the guitar player).

  • 1/2 liter extra virgin olive oil

  • Freshly squeezed lime juice (from 3–4 limes)

  • 4–5 garlic cloves, peeled and chopped

  • 1/2 dl oyster sauce

  • A few fresh sprigs of cilantro

 

Mop

This mixture is for those who baste. It is sometimes referred to as a “mop,” a term that men might want to use when their buddies start “talking barbecue.” Calling this mixture a “mop” is way cooler than calling it “this excellent recipe I just found for basting the meat.”

 

The mop can be used for most types of meats and is especially good with pieces that need to be grilled slowly over a long period of time.

 

  • 1 bottle of your favorite beer

  • 1 dl cider vinegar

  • 1 dl vegetable oil

  • 1/2 onion, chopped (don’t waste your time peeling)

  • 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped

  • 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 tablespoon Rub-a-dub

 

  1. Mix all ingredients together in a small pot.

  2. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes.

 

Tip: If I am “mopping” I usually have a bowl of mop in one corner of the grill (indirect heat of course) to keep it warm.
