How to cook Coke or beer marinated steak by Christo http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/CommentsForZondar-cafecoffeefoodtechnology/~3/8_wIfTkV9j0/ Christo Thu, 16 Oct 2008 22:39:51 +0000 http://www.zondar.com/blog/?p=130#comment-49 I think that's too much sugar. At first I thought coke would be terrible in foods but I guess you could argue the cola flavour is suitable for a lot of savoury dishes. Perhaps because it's "cooking for dads" it seems more ok, and I now read on Wikipedia: <blockquote> Kola nuts, which have a bitter taste, contribute little or no flavor to most cola recipes. </blockquote> See <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cola" rel="nofollow">Cola</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kola_nut" rel="nofollow">Kola nut</a>. Personally I would go the beer every time. And leave the brown sugar off the rub. I think that’s too much sugar.

At this point I'm still on the otherside of the counter. Drop me a mail (details on http://wadem.id.au) and we can chat some more. Peace, Wade Hi Nick,

I see you've found the Mecca. You've also snapped me on a pilgrimage there; second person from the right, shaved head. A watery coffee is very interesting comment, something I've never tasted. Places like Mecca don't just heat their milk they also texture it, giving it volume/thickness. Watery is very interesting. Some other Mecca photos if interested... http://photo.wi.id.au/index.php?showimage=289 http://photo.wi.id.au/index.php?showimage=280 http://photo.wi.id.au/index.php?showimage=320 See you around ;) --Wade M (http://wadem.id.au) Ah!
