JAMAICAN JERK SAUCE



Jamaican Jerk Sauce image

Jerking is actually a method of cooking in Jamaica. Typically chicken, pork roast, or cuts of goat are marinated in jerk seasoning - either dry spices or a wet marinade like this recipe - then roasted in a pit or grilled slowly over wood coals. Scotch Bonnet peppers are some of the hottest chili peppers in the world. You may substitute jalapenos instead. The best flavor for this jerk recipe is from whole allspice berries, which are also called pimientos in Jamaica. Whole allspice berries may be ground in a coffee mill or you may used ground allspice powder. Note: A batch of Jerk Sauce can be kept in the Fridge for up to 1 month.

JAMAICAN BBQ SAUCE

This is one of my mom's tattered recipes from her well-used collection. It says 1998 and is from Heloise. Very nice sauce for chicken, ribs, or whatever. We had this at almost every family gathering by the grill. You can double the recipe and store in the refrigerator for up to one month. Cooking time is refrigeration time.
