Authentic recipe!! I love making chicken wings with this marinade but half chickens are just as GOOD!! Make sure to marinade your chicken over night for best results or vacuum seal them for an hour. My buddy Matty Mattae mother gave me this recipe when we visited the island...enjoy authentic jerk and yeah mon it's hot!!
