ONCE THE MARINADE IS MADE YOU SHOULD LET IT SIT ON MEAT FOR AT LEAST 2-4 HOURS.

This should allow you to use 2 tbsp for each piece of meat.

1. Put rum, garlic, scallions and ginger into a food processor and blend.
2. Add the spices and blend more
3. Add the remaining ingredients and blend until kind of a thick paste
4. taste and adjust seasonings to your liking

Works good on fish, poultry, pork or beef. The longer you marinade the better. Tastes best when cooked on a grill. For a true jamaican taste grill using a hickory wood chip or pimento wood chip.
ENJOY!
