0-34 shut out jerk! Turns out the ground cloves are right next to the ground allspice in the cabinet, so it got both. Came out as usual plus a slight fall kick. Equinox on Wednesday, why not.



I think I'm gonna try to adapt this recipe to a dry rub version. The only ingredient I may have trouble sourcing is the habanero, but I have a dehydrator and a spice grinder.

LRHF, what's all in the salad you have there? Not the slaw…

Bump. It's what's for dinner!

I hadn't made these in a while. My habanero deseeding skills lacked this time. Still excellent. Will be fondly reminded tomorrow.

A sonnet to these wings…

Upon the plate, the wings of fiery zest,
Their spicy scent ascends, a bold delight,
With jerk's bold kiss, they set the tongue to test,
Each bite a dance of heat and flavor bright.

The crispy skin, a crackling serenade,
Within, the tender meat, a blazing treat,
With every mouthful, piquant joys cascade,
A feast where spice and savor smoothly meet.

Yet heed this tale, the morn will bring its plight,
For every fiery bite must have its due,
The flames you tamed with taste will reignite,
And in your gut, a fiery rendezvous.

So cherish now, this burning joy's embrace,
For spicy wings bring heat in every place.

So $1.79/lb chicken thighs and feeding 2 teenage boys, I tackled this today. Added a 2 mangoes and some lime juice to cut the heat. 2 pounds of breasts and 4 lbs of thighs, white rice, red beans, plantains….. I will let you know how they go

How did they go?
