Re: Your Favorite Foods...What you like to eat
The sugar doesn't really make the meat sweet.... at least I could never taste it. But marinating meat is nothing but salts is going to make your meat dry and/or tough.

Recipe sounds very good indeed....
but where can I get a mortar? The military won't even let us own one, neither does Nancy Pelosi.

You aren't the first one asking for recipes around here.... no one showed up theirs.
This is my version of spaghetti sauce.
Sizzle bacon until it is as dry and brittle and crispy as crackers, crumble.
Smack and chop some garlic and fry, use the leftover bacon grease if you like. Take out and leave along side with bacon.
Sweat an onion, I do mine julienne.
Add bell pepper; carrots and celery if desired.
Add either spaghetti sauce or straight up tomato sauce
- In the tomato sauce I would add garlic powder, basil, and oregano, maybe paprika and I usually add Zergut bell pepper appetizer, especially if it's been opened a while.
Add chili flakes, powder and/or paste to your taste.
I usually add dairy in mine, usually sour cream, to give it a tang. Tried yogurt but the stuff cuddles up in the heat. I add a little honey mustard too, again with the tang.
I add a little corn starch because I like my sauce thick.
I usually eat it on brown rice. (Too thick for spaghetti.)
I sprinkle on the bacon and garlic right before serving.

Off the top of my head, this is pretty much it.
Beef marinade - lemon juice, soy, and ginger.
"instant soup" for your ramen- fish sauce, soy sauce (again)
Got a recipe for a vinegar-dish?
