My Pimento Arrived (Pic)

From www.pimentowood.com 

I plan to make the marinade Thursday, prepare the chicken and marinate Friday to Saturday and cook Saturday for dinner. 

More pics and reviews to come. 

I can't believe how fragrant the pimento sticks are! And the two sauces were giveaways.

Staying tuned!!!!!

Carolina Q

Cool! Does the wood smell like allspice?

THEBuckeye

I just went to the pantry and smelled the Allspice. 

I then smelled the Pimento.

The difference?

The Pimento had a much greater depth of character and aroma. In comparison, the Allspice smelled like a weak Coca-Cola out of a fountain when the syrup was running low.

 Disclaimer: i'm not sure how old the Allspice is.

Looking forward to the cook. You know the rules, forks or it didn't happen.

I have used those chips. They are STRONG. I go a little easy with them as a result. But they sure deliver. Jerk on the egg is awesome. Direct around 375 is what I do.

Thanks for the tip!

@THEBuckeye My order arrived yesterday. I did not order the sticks. They gave me the jerk seasoning, leaves and chunks as a sample. As soon as the snow melts I plan on smoking some wings.

Why wait??

I love jerk chicken.  Two thumbs up for getting pimento wood.  I can't wait to see how this turns out.
