WudEyeDoo,
Go to Recipe section, sauces-rubs-marinades. Try jerk rub with raspberry glaze (2 recipes). I use pork tender loin.[p]Grillin Bill

WudEyeDoo,[p]Here are 2 very good jerk recipes. Tim cooks the chicken on our team and has developed his own recipe.[p]The cut of pork to use..........since rubs and marinades don't penetrate very deep, I prefer a tenderloin, chop or even a regular loin. A butt or picnic is much too thick to take advantage of the taste.[p]Enjoy![p]Stogie

WudEyeDoo,
I like to use a fresh pork ham, and remove the bone, and open the whole thing up into a relatively flat cut. Learned this from Stephen Raichlen in "How to Grill", it's very well illustrated and the marinade recipe with it is authentic and delicious. Soaked allspice berries on the coals give good flavor as well...

Nature Boy,[p]Yo Chris![p]Thanks for the kudos! Always willing to share a recipe or 2. I take pride in the fact that every recipe I post has been tried several times and passed my cigar-enhanced palate tests.[p]Stogie

WudEyeDoo,
If you want to, you could use a Pork Butt to do Jerk Pulled Pork. Put the jerk rub on the meat and let it sit for two days when I would put it on for a low and slow burn. Jerk Pulled Pork is a nice treat. Use a fruitwood like apple for the smoking wood. [p]I normally use a boneless pork loin for Jerk Pork in which case I would cook it direct at 325-350 turning every fifteen minutes until the internal temperature reaches 155.[p]I would suggest using a commercial wet Jerk Rub the first time, just so that you know the flavor and heat level that you are looking for. Try Mrs. Dog’s, Eatons, Walkers Woods or what you can find.[p]By the way, I have even made Jerk Ribs. Mmmmmm, tasty.[p]Hope this helps,

WudEyeDoo,
Try this link, but use pork tenderloin instead.[p]http://www.epicurious.com/run/recipe/view?id=106516
