Kentucky Bourbon Marinade Recipes

Steps:

• Add the onion, garlic, ketchup, bourbon, Worcestershire sauce, sorghum, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, whole-grain mustard, lemon juice, bay leaf and 1/4 cup water to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir to combine and bring up to a simmer. Continue to cook until smooth and slightly reduced, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from the heat and strain to remove the onion, garlic and bay leaf. Refrigerate until ready to serve or for up to 2 weeks.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the filet mignon in a bowl. Pour bourbon over steak and marinate for 1 hour. Remove the filet mignon from the bourbon and season with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil to a hot saute pan. Sear the filet mignon on all sides, about 1 minute per side. Place the meat in the oven and roast for 15 minutes or until medium rare. Remove the meat from the oven and allow to rest for 15 minutes. Slice the filet in half lengthwise. Slice each half into 18 thin slices so you have a total of 36 slices. In another saute pan over medium-low heat, melt the butter. Add the sliced white and red onions. Caramelize the onions until they are deep golden brown, about 25 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool. Slice the baguette into 36 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick slices. In a small bowl, combine the sour cream and the horseradish. Place a piece of filet mignon on each slice of bread. Top with some of the caramelized onions. Place a small amount of the horseradish sour cream on top of the onions. Garnish with parsley.

Steps:

• 1. Whisk together all ingredients, add 1/4 cup water in bowl. Good with beef, pork or chicken. Makes about 2 cups.

Steps:

• Combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Place your meat in a zip top bag and pour into the bag. Zip up and refrigerate overnight, turning the bag every so often.
• Heat the grill to med-high heat and grill as usual. Remove the meat and discard the marinade. Cook as usual.

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium heat, combine the onion, garlic, and whiskey. Simmer for 10 minutes, or until onion is translucent. Mix in the ground black pepper, salt, ketchup, tomato paste, vinegar, liquid smoke, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar, and hot pepper sauce.
• Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer for 20 minutes. Run sauce through a strainer if you prefer a smooth sauce.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients together in a container, (I use a quart Mason jar so I can shake it up), mix well. Marinate meat of choice for a minimum of 4 hours. 24 hours is optimal. Grilling is the preferred method of preparation, however pan-searing or oven-roasting will work out fine.
