JerkSauce_HJerk is one of my favorite flavors and you can’t make delicious Caribbean Jerk without one hot fiery recipe and you’re in luck as I found the perfect combination of jerk goodness.

430131_406151479410403_451356835_nThis recipe came from my good friend Mary Rocto, she not only sent me a recipe but also a video with a note – use as many scotch boniness  as you like– you da boss and Mary does know her jerk, we were both finalists in the show Recipe to Riches that aired both on the Food Network and CBC and in her season Mary won over the judges with her Jerk Bundles. Now I have to admit, before I tried this recipe, I tried several others but this one won hands down! This recipe yields a marinate with a sauce like consistency that is good to marinate about 4 pounds of chicken, meat or fish. I like that this can be made ahead and just poured on. I am developing another more paste like, thicker, jerk marinade so stay tuned for that recipe soon.
