Jamaican Jerk Pork Chops with Island Salsa

By: McCormick® Gourmet Collection® 
"In Jamaica, the jerk method of food preparation involves seasoning meat with a sweet-hot secret mixture of peppers, tropical spices like cinnamon and allspice, rosemary and other savory herbs then slow grilling or roasting. This specially created spice blend captures the tantalizing taste of the islands in just 35 minutes."
