Jamaican Barbecue Sauce image

"Since visiting Jamaica, I've become a big fan of jerk chicken and fish," writes Lee Ann Odell from Boulder, Colorado. "I came up with my own version of that zesty island flavoring especially for this contest. It's a great sauce for ribs, whether you're grilling them or making them in the oven. It makes me feel like I'm on vacation!"

This sauce is not worth the effort. It's bland and doesn't have any depth of flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my sauce didn't turn out right. It was too runny and didn't have much flavor.

This sauce is okay, but I've had better. It's a little too tangy for my taste.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sauce didn't turn out as good as I hoped. It was a little too sweet for my taste.

I'm not usually a fan of barbecue sauce, but this one is really good. It's not too sweet or tangy, and has a nice smoky flavor.
