SUBMITTED BY: LOVINLIFE

"This is a dry Jamaican Jerk seasoning I use mostly on grilled chicken! You may want to give some away to friends because this recipe makes a lot! Use it as a dry rub on grilled chicken, fish, steak, or just about anything else."

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 1/2 cups allspice
  • 8 cups salt
  • 5 1/2 cups garlic powder
  • 4 cups white sugar
  • 1 cup chipotle chile powder
  • 1/2 cup ground cloves
  • 2 cups dried thyme leaves
  • 2 cups ground black pepper
  • 4 cups cayenne pepper
  • 1 cup ground cinnamon

DIRECTIONS

  1. Place allspice, salt, garlic powder, sugar, chipotle powder, cloves, thyme, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and cinnamon into a very large bowl. Mix together until well blended. Store in airtight containers.
  2. To use, rub spice mix onto the meat of your choice, about 1 1/2 teaspoons per serving. For best results, marinate for at least an hour to allow the flavors of the rub to penetrate the meat.

scaled it down to 10 servings. I am going to use it on steak tomorrow but I tried a little after I mixed it. The only thing I changed was 1/2 chili powder and 1/2 cumin since I don't have chipotle chili powder. Nice balance of flavors with a kick.

Best Jamaican Jerk dry rub I've used. Beats store bought rubs and sauces hands-down. I used it as a dry rub on Chilean Sea Bass, and the results were nothing short of incredible. For the Sea Bass, I reduced the salt content - it seemed to high for seafood. However, the recommended amount of salt works fine for meats. This dry rub also makes a delicious addition to standard BBQ sauces.
