Jamaican jerk sauce
MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.05
Title: Jamaican jerk sauce
Categories: Sauces, Pork, Chicken, Fish
Yield: 1 Servings
-----michael grosz vbff60a--
1/2 c Ground allspice
<<or>>
1/3 c Jamaican ground allspice
1/2 c Brown sugar
6 Cl Garlic (to 8)
4 Scotch bonnet peppers (to 6)
Equivalent) seeds and all
1 tb Ground thyme
<<or>>
2 tb Thyme leaves
2 bn Scallions
1 ts Cinnamon
1/2 ts Nutmeg
2 tb Soy sauce to moisten (about)
Put everything in a food processor and blend until smooth. You may use
allspice berries, if available, but use enough to give the equivalent
of 1/2 cup ground. This will keep "forever" in the refrigerator. Feel
free to increase the garlic, and the hot peppers. I do. The recipe,
double, and triples very well. Rub about 1/4 cup sauce into each
chicken, halved, and get under the skin and in all the cavities. If
it is pork, use a de-boned shoulder, score the fat, and rub the sauce
in, using 1/2 cup, or more, per 6 lb shoulder. Use less for fish.
Marinate, preferably overnight, and grill over a low fire, until
done. Charcoal is ideal. The meat will be a smoky pink when done, and
the skin nice and dark. Chop the meat into pieces, and serve
traditionally with a hard-dough bread, and LOTS of Red Stripe Beer!
This is the recipe for a Jamaican Jerk Sauce exactly as Christine
Morin posted it here some months ago. Chris is a restaurant owner,
caterer, and chef from Jamaica and this is her Jerk Sauce recipe and
method. It can be made in bulk, refrigerated, and used to marinate
chicken (whole, half, or wings, pork (chops or deboned shoulder, or
fresh picnic), or a firm-fleshed fish like grouper or dolphin. It is
VERY popular Jamaican eating..... and introduces a pepper called a
Scotch Bonnet; an extremely flavorful and aromatic, and HOT AS ALL
HELL Jamaican pepper, that makes a jalapeno seem tame, by comparison.
The SB, as I know it, seems to have "relatives" all over the
Caribbean, Central and South America, and even into the West coast of
the US. One of them is the Habanero.
