  1. We loved this "jerked" chicken recipe. I thought it would be "hot" in terms of spice, but it wasn't -- just wonderfully flavorful. I marinated these drumsticks for 24 hours as the recipe indicated and DH brushed them throughout the grilling process. The end result was a moist and succulent chicken. Will definitely make this recipe again. Made for Spring PAC, April, 2013.
     
  2. Excellent - I used thighs and marinated for the full 24 hours. Just the right spiciness for us - not hot but very full of flavor. made for ZWT9 Soup-a-Stars
