re: EDITED: Can't say I'm a big fan of Dale's marinade...

I can't believe it's actually sold as a steak marinade unless it's specifically aimed at people that buy those huge sirloin steaks from Winn Dixie

How can you say that when you put it on uhhh pork?? Apples and Oranges.. All marinades do not taste the same on different meats.. Im not being defensive about a marinade just odd that someone doesnt try something on a small piece of meat but instead puts it on everything without knowing if they like it then blame others for your stupid mistake. I think Dales is absolutely great on steak. I used to never use any marinade on any steak but dales gives it a good flavor. You wouldnt know that because you didnt put it on a steak.. I only found out about it because a place where I liked the steaks used it and then I found out what they were doing.

Basically you put a steak marinade on pork and say that its useless on a steak

I have definitly put it on filet before (a pretty much flavorless steak by itself) and it gives it just what it needs no more. In actuality if used right you should not even taste the dales just a hint of seasoned flavor. Im not sure what exactly you did, like I said I have never used it on pork, but its just stupid to put a product down for what it is intended for when you use it on something that it can be used on but not its main purpose.

My point being is dont blame others for a recommendation if you dont like it. We didnt ruine 8 pork chops because we recommended a product for something else. Its easier to put dales on 1 chop and see if you like it for next time. Try it on a cheap ribeye by our recommedations then there is more to talk about. Its possible you wont like it but at least it would be apples to apples.

Alright chief. You win. Apparently everyone has to like what you like. The fricking bottle markets it as being "delicious on all meats, fish, fowl and vegetables." Maybe they should include an "except pork" statement then I would have known better.

As for the amount of pork chops soap box you're on, they had to be cooked that day and Dale's was all I had so I just went with it. Is it a fricking sin in "Catman world" to not like this shite? Have you seen the numerous other posts in this thread agreeing with me?

Actually if you buy those huge sirloin steaks, kosher salt and black pepper, cook them medium rare and slice thin against the grain they make a fine mid week dinner. I do London Broils quite a bit the same way. Good stuff. Really tasty. You don't always have to eat tenderloin to enjoy beef.

I'm with you man. I use those big sirloins for things like fajitas, tacos and steak wraps. I wasn't knocking the cut of meat just the people that consider that good steak and then proceed to slather the ketchup all over it. Anything more than med. rare and you might as well pitch it to the dogs.

Did you come here looking for acceptance??
Did I say you had to like Dales? Thats personal preference.

I DID say that you cant blame people for ruining your pork chops. That was your decision to put something you never tried on it essentially experimenting with a whole batch. You came on here on the soap box calling everyone out for recommending Dales (which was recommended ON STEAKS) Wouldnt a post that you dont like Dales have sufficed instead of blaming people for your stupid mistake? In all the threads about Dales I have ever seen on this board pretty much the same people in this thread claimed they didnt care for Dales. Is there a suprise that they would say so again?

Try Dales on a steak then you have what we recommended.. Dales could put on the bottle to try on a rubber tire that doesnt mean anyone here recommended you go buy 4 sets of goodyears and ruin them. Blame Dales for saying you can put it on any meat not the people here saying its good on STEAK.

---

Jesus dude. Call the fricking dogs off already. I don't like it. I don't care if it was on Megan Fox's tits (well maybe ) It just doesn't have a good taste TO ME. Let it go. You're just coming off like a poster child for Dale's.

Yep its basically Soy, ginger and typical spices.. I think the only difference b/t dales and Moores is that it has ginger in it. If you dont like Soy Sauce then you wont like it. Used right you wont realy taste the soy sauce but in a burger or something that it is mixed in you defintily would taste it.

Only reason I keep saying anything is because you STILL dont get it.. I dont give a shite if you like dales or not.. I do give a shite that you blamed people here for recommending it on something you didnt try and said everyone here's advice is worthless because of it except for two people (one of those being one of the people recommending it on something you didnt try)

If you spend time on this board there are many people here that make great recommendations there is a lot of knowledge on this board. You dont discount everyone here because you dont like something.

Ohhhh, I see now. I didn't include you on my "advice from" list. My bad dog. I actually DO value your opinion as you've been pretty good in the past, well, minus the Dale's thing.

I have a question, If you didn't like the smell of Dales, why did you use it? If I don't like the aroma of something, I sure would't put it something that I was planning on eating. I don't see why you are quick to blame people who recommended it. Not everone has the same taste buds. I saw people here heaping praise on Dales. I decided to try it. I didn't like it. I didn't return and blame the people who like for my disliking it. What may taste good for some may taste like crap to others.

Thanks dad.

When did this place turn into the political board?

Save the fighting for other boards, the food and drink board is all about good times…

I'm with ya dog. I apologize if anyone felt that I was blaming them but I think Catman was more upset that I didn't include him in the "who I'm taking advice from" list.
