"In Jamaica this seasoning mixture is used to flavor chicken, pork, fish and shellfish, and is often added to soups and stews. If you like spicy food, You'll probably want to put it on just about everything too. Prep time includes marinating time. Adapted from WorldWide Recipes. Posted for ZWT5."

Excellent Jerk Recipe. I did add less thyme, cuz one of my daughters don't care for it. I BBQ'd it and it was yummy. Made for Zaar Chef Alphabet Soup Tag Game.
