Jamaican Jerk Marinade

By VerneJ

This is a good one for Turkey, Fish, Pork and Chicken. You may want to double up on this one because 1 recipe is for about 1-1/2 lbs of meat.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup orange juice
• 1/2 cup vinegar
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup olive oil
• 1 jalapeno pepper, diced
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon thyme
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon allspice
• 1 tablespoon gingerroot, minced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced (I use more because I love garlic)
• 4 green onions, thinly sliced

Preparation

Step 1

1. Mix all marinade ingredients in a shallow baking dish (I just use a large ziplock bag for all of my marinating).

2. Reserve 1/2 cup to be used as a dipping sauce or baste.

3. Add meat to marinade and refrigerate for 30 minutes to overnight.

4. Grill when you are ready.
