http://howtobbqright.com/blog/?p=1577 This is my take on jerk chicken. I marinade my chicken in a jerk chicken marinade overnight. Grill my jerk chicken on a weber kettle grill with 2-zone grilling for searing and cooking the jerk chicken. Then glaze my jerk chicken with a jerk chicken sauce recipe.

To flavor the chicken it's all about the marinade. Here is the recipe I used:
- 3-4 green onions (diced)
- 1-2 scotch bonnet pepper (depending on how hot you like it)
- ¼ cup fresh lime juice (about 3 limes)
- 2T soy sauce
- 3T olive oil
- 2T salt
- 1T brown sugar
- 2t cracked black pepper
- 1 Heaping Tablespoon Jerk Seasoning
You combine all those ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth.
And while the chicken was cooking, I made a final glaze. Here is my recipe:
- 3-4 scallions sliced thin
- 3 cloves of garlic chopped
- 1 scotch bonnet pepper finely chopped -- once again I stress safety with these peppers
- 1T fresh thyme minced
- 1T Jamaican Jerk seasoning
- 2 limes juiced
- ½ cup ketchup
- ½ cup pineapple juice
Place all ingredients in a food processor and pulse it a few times. But I like to leave mine a little chunky -- so don't go crazy here.
