Jamaican Jerk Burgers for Grill
"For the BBQer in the family. I will also post the Orange-Chipotle Mayonnaise. Original was from Automatic Slim's Tonga Club-Memphis, Tenn. posted in Bon Appetit.
Note to those who are going to try this: Please make sure you read the reviewers comments. I don't plan on jiggling the recipe because it is a restaurant recipe posted by Amysauntjo. However, looks around and whispers, A bit of Jerk seasoning like the one I get from one of the major companies might not be amiss mixed in with the meat. But don't tell the restaurant that either... and you might really want to include the mayo suggested on this."

I think I would prefer some of the seasonings added to the meat itself for a stronger burst of flavor. The marinade is tasty, but the glaze remains on the outside. I will play with this one again. Thank you for sharing your recipe. -
the burgers were definitely good, but i didn't really taste the "jerk" in it..

AND that is the end of this. If the phone doesn't ring? It's me.
If you are looking to ask me a question? I'm not here. I won't answer.
I do not assure you that the ingredients, amounts or even the directions in any recipe under my two accounts are correct due to the bad directional pointer in the database that is causing problems with the amounts or ingredients. I will also NOT assure you they are correct when the site claims they are fixed. Use at your own risk. They will be correct on my site. End of story.
