Be sure to cut the meat, after it has rested, across the grain and as thin as you can. This…	3 votes 2 reviews 7 comments 11496 views

The end result makes…	1 vote 1 comment 2655 views

	Brown Sugar and Soy Salmon by Kyra Martin This was sooo good! I cooked the salmon wrapped in foil like the recipe said too, but if (or rather when) I make it again, I will probably grill it or bake it so the sauce gets thick and delicious.	1 vote 2107 views
	White Dry Rub by John Greenler I was using my red rub for all meats. It was good but thought the beef needed to treated differantly. I came up with this rub for my red meats.
