I recommend that you try to avoid letting the wind blow the aroma of this chicken on your grill into the neighbour's yard, unless you are prepared to cook a second batch.

    Cannot believe I haven't reviewed this....this is some of the best chicken ever! Hot or cold!!!! Perfect combo of spices and not as spicy as a true Jamaican version, but the perfect amount of heat for us!

    This is a fantastic base recipe for jerk chicken. I made a few modifications. 1. I use a jalapeno pepper and a scotch bonnet pepper (we like it hot). 2. I double the thyme, cloves, nutmeg and garlic. 3. I triple the allspice. 4. I cut the oil in half. 4. I reserve 1/2 the marinade for basting and baste and flip the chicken about four times, cooking a total of 15 minutes on the grill.
