Can anyone give me an idea on how to make the jerk sauce they serve in the beach restaurant. It's fantastic and I couldn't get the receipe from the chef. I told them they should bottle and sell it.

Don't know if the link will work or not, but here it is....

If the link doesn't work, go back approx. 10 pages and you will find a message titled: Randymon... Now I Need a Recipe.
We have followed the recipe and use it on almost everything but dessert. Reminds us of being back home at Couples.
This is the sort of thing that puts Couples resorts head and shoulders above any other... not the jerk sauce (well maybe) but it's the attention to detail, like providing recipes, the service... it truly is like living and visiting family... assuming everyone gets along with their family.
I won't swear to it, but I believe it does come in a bottle, made by Busha Brown.

Thanks everyone for the info!
There's also a Jamaican Jerk rub from Pampered Chef that we love to use on chicken and steak. We just close our eyes and pretend we're back in Jamaica!! I would put it on everything if I could!
Walkserwood is good to.
Here's a recipe we make, but I don't know if it's the same one they use.

6 scallions, green only, thinly sliced
2 large shallots, finely minced
2 large cloves garlic, finely minced
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh ginger
1 teaspoon seeded, finely chopped Scotch Bonnet (Habanero) pepper

1 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon coarse salt
1 tablespoon dark brown sugar
½ cup fresh orange juice
½ cup rice vinegar
¼ cup red wine vinegar
¼ cup soy sauce
¼ cup olive oil
2 chickens, quartered
Directions:
In a small bowl combine scallions greens, shallots, garlic, ginger and scotch bonnet pepper.
In another bowl combine spices, salt and sugar. Mix thoroughly. Whisk in OJ, vinegars and soy sauce. Slowly drizzle in oil, whisking constantly. Add reserved scallion mixture, stir to combine. Let rest for 1 hour.

To make the Sauce for the Jerk burger, heat 1 cup of brown chicken jus. Add 1 cup of ketchup and about ½ - 1 cup of the above marinade. Simmer for 5 minutes and strain. If sauce is too thin, thicken with a little corn starch (mixed with little cold water).
