Title: Some Jerk.
Post by: One Touch Platinum on June 09, 2013, 06:43:38 PM
My first attempt at Jerk chicken. Cooked the breasts indirect until they hit 150 degrees and then seared them until 160 degrees and let them come up to 165 degrees while they rested. I didn't have any pimento  wood so I used a little bit of apple chips to add a little smoke. We used Walker'swood Jerk seasoning and injected the chicken with a blend of the seasoning and butter. I sprayed the breasts with Red Stripe once it was on the grill. My Father in law is from Jamaica , he loved it . I finished up the meal by grilling up some pineapple slices from a can with some brown sugar sprinkled on it over vanilla ice cream.

Did you use mild or spicy?  I did the same yesterday with a mix of both; I like the heat and straight spicy seems like it would've been overkill.

Nice job, jerk seasoning has a great flavor. I need to get some walkerswood.

Used the mild....was still spicey. It was 107 yesterday.....I could have just left the chicken sitting outside on a plate and cooked it!

The Walkerswood is a pretty good sauce.  Grace is also a good brand.  Injecting never occurred to me, but I will try that.  I also like to make a sauce for basting at the end with some ketchup and molasses added to the jerk for a bbq like glaze at the end to give a bit of sweetness to the chicken.  Love that jerk chicken!
