Based on a popular Canadian cocktail, this spicy tomato marinade pairs well with chicken or beef.
Chef's notes
Clamato juice is a beverage that is commonly sold in Canada. It is a mixture of water, tomato paste, spices, celery seed, dried clam broth and vinegar. This blend was used to create a well-known cocktail called a "Bloody Caesar". If you cannot find Clamato juice in your area, you can make a similar version by mixing:
5 cups tomato juice
1 cup clam juice
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp Worcestershire
hot sauce (to taste)
1/4 tsp celery salt
This marinade is based on the recipe by Ted Reader, King of the Q's Blue Plate BBQ.
