In some parts of the Middle East, aka kebab land, they use pomegranate molasses for marinating the meat. Kabab-e-torsh, a northern Iranian specialty, is an example of that. Pomegranate molasses taste very much like balsamic vinegar. So, I am sure this tastes amazing.

I just made this. I used barrel aged pomegranate balsamic vinegar from Texas Hill Country Olive Co. and omitted the honey. Didn't want it to be too sweet. Also used Sicilian infused olive oil for a little extra flavor and fresh rosemary out of the garden. Turned out amazing. Served it on some yellow rice with some fresh green onions. Thank you Chef John for all the years of incredible recipes and humor. I look forward to enjoying even more videos

I made this for the fam the other night, this was perhaps the best beef marinade I've ever tasted. Everyone cleaned their plates which is rare for my beef averse girls. I did use the overnight marinade method but couldn't find aged balsamic simply because they didn't have any at my supermarket so I just used plain old organic balsamic.

I made this tonight for the wife and I (cause the kids wont eat anything good) It was wonderful. I didn't have rosemary so I added fresh Thyme and I added fresh ginger since I had some I needed to get rid of. I also grilled some big chunks of red onions, green and red peppers with some Cajun seasoning. A complete keeper... Lovely.

My family is from Dagestan(North Caucus, part of Russia), and this marenade for scewerd meat is almost the exact eay my father makes the traditional Shashlik. White onion are the more common choice, and he usually adds cilantro/parsley(which I hate). And the traditional serving is as a pile of scewered meat with a bunch of chopped onion and greens on top. Anyway, while you won't find this in Italian grills, you are very likely to find it in Caucasian/Georgian grills.
@rihardsrozans69204 ай бұрын
Shashlik is popular in a lot of post Soviet countries, kinda the answer to western worlds barbecue. We used to make our with white vinegar, lemons, black pepper and of course salt. Most often we would use pork though which I suppose is not very popular in Dagestan.

This seems remarkably similar in recipe and preparation to Pork Agrodulce, which is cubes of pork shoulder (or similar cuts) soaked, and then braised for several hours in the marinade, making a sauce.

@markjdunbar4 ай бұрын
You should definitely try it, but you might want to shorten the marination time a little. If the vinegar gets too deep into the meat, I can imagine it tightening up the proteins a little and making it slightly drier or slightly tougher. Still, that's going to be a balancing act, because it's also going to make it flavorful, so give it a try. As Chef John might say, "That's just you cookin'."
