1 2 inch piece of fresh ginger, finely minced
3-4 cloves fresh garlic, minced
1 cup soy sauce
1 cup sugar, brown sugar or honey (see note)
2 oz Jack Daniels (or other whiskey or rum)

Note: A can of pineapple in syrup may be substituted for the sugar if a blender is available. Measure out 3/4 cup of pineapple from a can of slices or chunks, then add 1/4 cup syrup (from the can). Blend to a liquid.

Peel ginger using a sharp paring knife. Toss into blender (or mince finely).

Peel garlic and add to blender (or mince).

Combine all ingredients. Marinate meat (good on any kind) overnight in a Ziploc bag. Discard any remaining marinade after use.
