WIth all due respect, if you are using Jerk Spice, you are really not doing this recipe justice. I suggest finding the recipe for Jamacian Jerk Chicken from the Sugar Reef restaurant... it is online.

love the fact that you have a website that teaches you about Jamaican cooking I think that is so cool.
It'd be a shame to make Jerk chicken and not make your own sauce - fresh ingredients are awesome in this recipe. Even people who aren't big spice fans can't resist it.
Nice idea about mixing in Pimento chips with the charcoal though, gotta try that.
