The island of Jamaica is famous for its beautiful beaches, reggae music, exotic fruits, its cheerful people and their amazing food. But, you haven't tasted Jamaica until you've tried Jamaican Jerk, ya mon! Be forewarned, if you cannot handle spicy-hot foods, jerk may not be for you. Omitting chili pepper vastly changes the end product, and it's just not jerk without the heat. But you can use a milder pepper if you wish.



1/2 cup ground allspice (Pimento Berry)
1/2+ cup packed brown sugar
6 to 8 garlic cloves
4 to 6 Scotch bonnet peppers, depending on size
1 tablespoon ground thyme or 2 tablespoons thyme leaves
2 bunches Green onions (scallions)
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons soy sauce to moisten

Place allspice, brown sugar, garlic, scotch bonnet peppers, thyme, green onion, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, pepper, and soy sauce in a food processor and pulse it until smooth. You may use whole allspice berries, if available, but use enough to give the equivalent of 1/2 cup ground. (Allspice berries and scotch bonnets are key ingredients.) Keep this sauce refrigerated and it will keep for just about forever.
