I am an expert in the area of outdoor cooking, both from the consumer side as well as the industry side. I have judged world class barbecue competitions, travelled the world and explored all aspects of food that is smoked and grilled.

    By Derrick Riches| DerrickRiches.com@ Place all the ingredients in a standard-sized food processor or large blender, and puree mixture. The marinade should be thick and paste-like. If you’d like it thinner, add 1-2 tablespoons of water to the mixture and blend until it reaches your desired consistency. Use it right away, or store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week. *See notes below for marinating times.
