I made this for ZWT III and it was really good. I loved the variety of vegetables, and I loved the versatility of choosing my own jerk seasoning (I used Caribbean Dry Jerk Seasoning). We didn't put shrimp on ours (because we were grilling some other shrimp at the same time), but otherwisemade this according to the recipe. We loved the rum soaked fruit, and those of us who are not Jerk freaks really liked the amount of seasoning on this. The Jerk freaks in the family were upset because you could still taste the chicken and the beef through the Jerk! So they gave it a 3. This also made for really good tacos, just scoot everything into a tortilla. I served this with Coconut Lime Rice. Devilishly Divine, indeed! Thank you.

This was a very nice flavor combination. The rum-soaked fruit was wonderful and even my 7-year old enjoyed the spicy chicken. Simple and delicious. Thanks Devious Diners!

I made this for ZWT3 and it was very good. I used some sirloin steak and chicken for the kebobs, then I had mushroom, onions and red pepper on other skewers. I had never tried jerk seasoning and it was very good and not too spicey.

I've never had jerk before and what a great way to start. I used chicken breasts for the meat, small shiitakes, canned pineapple, and unfortunately had to leave out the red pepper. The rum soaked fruit was terrific- make sure you use a pretty firm mango so they don't fall off the skewer.I'd also recommend straining the fruit from the rum so that you can use the rum in a tropical drink to sip on while you grill. Very Flavorful.Thanks so much Develishly Devious Diners!

Yum yum yum. Didn't use the shrimp though cos my partner doesn't eat it (he's a sissy ha ha) substituted this for pork. The flavour was great, I didn't have the pineapple on mine because I don't like cooked pineapple, but I don't think this meant the flavour wasn't there. I served it with warm pita breads and a bit of lettuce. Thanks!

I agree, the mango makes this dish!! I used baby portobello mushrooms...yum! Made for the family that I cook for, and they were licking their fingers! This is a keeper, guaranteed to impress. Thanks!

Yummy! We used the marinade overnight to just marinade some chicken breasts for the grill. It was delicious!! I can't wait to try it with the other meats and veggies! Thank yoU!

This is fantastic! We made it for a Caribbean-themed Father's Day dinner (complete with Pussers Painkillers - yum!) and it was a HUGE hit. My dad, who is a great cook and prefers his own food to even restaurants, couldn't stop saying, "Mmmm" long enough to say "Thank you!" This is definitely a keeper, though we had the same issue as others with the mango falling off. The ones tucked into the onions worked the best.

My son and I just LOVED these! We made it a "family" project and by the time we sat down to eat them our mouths were watering! Delicious! I made these exactly like the recipe!
