Depending on dietary restrictions and personal preference, one may choose chicken thighs for a lighter but no less flavorful option or beef brisket for its rich flavor and tenderness when slow-coosatta saveraked. Making a marinade to add flavor to the meat comes next after it has been selected. A mixture of spices, including paprika and black pepper, dark rum, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger are common marinades for savory rummy meat. Place the meat in a shallow dish or a resealable plastic bag, cover it with the marinade, and let it soak in the fridge for a few hours or overnight.
