Incomplete recipe
This receipe failed to progress past the marinade. No quantities are given for almost all of the ingredients and an attempt at guessing quantities provided an unsavory flavour. Also, there isn't a media clip to review the cooking process which may have helped. The one star rating should be negative but this system won't allow a 'no rate' or 'negative rate'.

Bringing meat to room temperature

Always bring your meat (this does not apply to minced meat) to room temperature before cooking it. This will allow for the exterior of the meat to brown nicely when it comes into contact with heat.
