    When I was a kid, our school did a project where we tried different ways to "clean" extremely dirty pennies. The best method ended up being Old El Paso taco seasoning mixed with water, leaving them overnight. The pennies came out shiny. I wonder if the acidity of the seasoning could tenderize a steak?

    It’s the citric acid acting as a tenderizer. The bromelain in pineapple is definitely a more potent tenderizer (pineapple also has citric acid btw). Bromelain is actually the “active” ingredient in many meat tenderizers, so maybe you should give those a try as your next tenderizer test.

    Yo guga, here in Indonesia there's a technique to tenderize the meat (esp. beef). It's by using papaya leaf. So you wrap the meat in papaya leaf for some hours and somehow it's gonna be tender. I heard it's because some kind of enzymes in those leaf or something. I hope you read it and give it a try for your new video. Love from Indonesia 🇮🇩

    Hey Guga!!
    1st off Great video as always. My wife is Filipino and used Sprite on anything from poultry, to fish, to pork BBQ Skewers. (Brother those Filipino skewers...)
    But I’m originally from Mexico and my dad was unquestioned the Grill master of our house and HE used beers on carne asada, chuletas de puerco, any fish, or poultry you can imagine. We couldn’t always afford the best cuts but, when he added the beer to the marinades and or used it to baste the meat on the grill, it was heaven. The beers do impart an sweet, irony flavor, mild caramelization glazing and depending on the brand various degrees of hopp tanginess. Beers: Tecate, regular Coors, Tecate, Budwizers, but even inexpensive Pabst blue ribbon is gold on the charcoal grill.
    I hope you give these a try or even use the beers you like brother. Gotta keep Mamao coming back with new flavors eh. 😁🤙🏼🍖🥩🍺🍺

    I remember this! My grandparents and my mom used sprite or 7-up when tenderizing meat when I was little. I specifically remember whenever they would make a huge whole ham leg. But they would add other spices and condiments when cooking with these beverage tenderizers. They really work good and yes taste good becauseif the other slices they added. I think all Filipino families know about Sprite on meats. 😂👍

    Suggestion, I have tenderized meats with all types of liquids and dry rubs. I have used BBQ grills to cook all types of meats and every thing under the sun. But nothing seals in the flavor of the meat, especially on steaks and chops like cast iron pan on a BBQ grill. A cast iron pan will sear steak/ chop, which leaves that piece of meats so juicy... But to to each his own.

Cook it to a medium rare for beef, full through for pork, and either way once it comes off of the grill it becomes a melt-in-your-mouth experience i wouldnt expect from soda-boiled meats.

    Give it a try, it tastes really good.
