Teriyaki sauce:

3 parts soy sauce (preferably Japanese shoyu)
3 parts sake
3 parts mirin
1 part caster (baker's) sugar

Put in a pan, heat to dissolve, and let cool.  If you want a thicker sauce (this one is pretty thin), add some (not much) tapioca starch or corn starch with the other ingredients.

It's really not hard to make, and it tastes delicious.

I use a bit of ginger (preferably fresh) and replace the caster with black molasses.  ;P

I don't know that the Japanese traditionally use molasses, but I'm sure it tastes good.

I'd like to try ginger, but I don't currently have a grater fine enough to try fresh.  I should add some powdered.

I made zaru soba the other day.  It was pretty good, but I needed a bit more water in the noodles, they were a tad dry in the center.

*Spicy* beef broth with thin rice vermicelli noodles, beef and pork. (And also some mini-Vietnamese meatballs.) Very good.

I was going to make an egg salad sandwich, but instead made This.  It was yummy.

I'm glad my cooking looks good.  It tasted good too.  I used spicy miso teriyaki for flavor.

Just got home from a BBQ me and a friend were holding. Some good eats!

regular old BBQ fare, though, bugers, hotdogs, pork steaks, and turkey dogs.

I made the burger patties by hand, though. I mixed together 27% fat ground chuck, and 1 and a half pounds of bacon that i minced up to make some delicious (albeit greasy) burgers. We had more burgers than anything at the BBQ, but the burger stock got absolutely destroyed, so i assume people liked em.

That fat content is ridiculously high.

That fat content is ridiculously high. 

the 27%, or everything together after the bacon was thrown in? And yup. Fatty burger patties hold together better than lean meat (if it's too lean, the burgers will fall apart while cooking).

The 27% is, let alone without the bacon.

If you put a little bit of plain oatmeal in it they will stick together quite well without changing the flavor really.
