MONGOLIAN GRILL FEAST
My favorite place to eat is a place called HuHot Mongolian Grill. I could eat there every day I think! My DH on the other hand would starve to death if we went there that often! So, to spare him from my cravings, I decided to learn how to make my favorite dish at home. That way I can whip this up anytime I want! **Always use fresh vegetables! Although frozen can be substituted in a pinch.

Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and tools ready. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling.
- Use Fresh Ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your Mongolian grill feast will taste. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced produce.
- Marinate Your Meat: Marinating your meat for at least 30 minutes (or up to overnight) will help to tenderize it and infuse it with flavor.
- Cook Your Meat in Batches: Don't overcrowd your grill or wok. Cook your meat in batches to ensure that it cooks evenly.
- Don't Overcook Your Meat: Mongolian grill meat is best when it is cooked quickly and to a medium-rare or medium doneness. Overcooked meat will be tough and chewy.
- Use a Variety of Vegetables: The more vegetables you use, the more colorful and flavorful your Mongolian grill feast will be. Some good choices include broccoli, carrots, onions, bell peppers, and mushrooms.
- Make Your Own Sauce: Store-bought Mongolian grill sauce is often high in sodium and sugar. Making your own sauce is easy and gives you more control over the flavor.
- Serve with Rice or Noodles: Mongolian grill is traditionally served with rice or noodles. You can also serve it with other sides, such as salad, spring rolls, or wontons.

Hosting a Mongolian grill feast is a great way to enjoy a delicious and interactive meal with friends and family. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily create a feast that everyone will love. Just remember to follow these tips and you'll be sure to have a successful Mongolian grill experience.
