actually, it's still in the meat drawer of the refrigerator.

probably tomorrow it will go into a marinade for london broil. i'm
thinking pineapple-soy, or maybe this one, which sounds kinda gross,
but is actually pretty good:

1/4 cup each catsup, vinegar, oil and water
1 tb prepared mustard
1 1/2 tsp salt

(from 'marinade magic,' by dona meilach. she says it's for beef
kabobs.)

....with rice vinegar and coarse-ground major grey poupon for the
mustard, and olive oil. probably some garlic on g.p.'s. i've used
kraft catalina instead of the ketchup with good results, but unless
it's on sale tomorrow, that's unlikely.

but i'm always open to suggestions. .89 lbs, and real purdy. i
haven't had flank in a while.

your pal,
