Meh. Needed much more vinegar, more salt. I don't think I will make it again. Going back to the old family recipe. Definitely not tangy enough for me.
Meh is right… may have overcooked this, prob should not actually boil the meat, yet recipe gave very litttle direction and I am overly concerned of serving raw meat. Added arrowroot with water to thicken the gravy. Chose this recipe simply because of marinade requirements - did not have 3-7 days to marinade the meat.
After following the recipe, remove the beef and simmer the marinade for 30 or until it reduces to desired consistency.
