Bereiding

  1. Season and marinate the chicken

    • Pat the chicken dry and score the thicker pieces.
    • Rub the jerk seasoning blend all over the chicken, working it into the cuts.
    • Cover and marinate in the fridge.
    Stap 1

  2. Build the jollof stew base

    • Blend the tomatoes, red bell pepper, scotch bonnet, half the onion, garlic and ginger into a smooth base.
    • Heat the vegetable oil in a pot and fry the remaining chopped onion until soft.
    • Add the tomato paste and fry until it darkens, then pour in the blended base.
    • Cook the base down slowly, stirring often, until the oil separates and it is thick and glossy.
    Stap 2

  3. Cook the jollof rice

    • Stir the curry powder, thyme, bay leaf and salt into the stew base.
    • Add the rinsed rice and stir so every grain is coated.
    • Pour in the chicken stock, bring to a simmer, cover tightly and cook on low until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
    Stap 3

  4. Set up the grill for indirect cooking

    • Light the grill and set it up for indirect heat.
    • Add the pimento wood and leaves to create smoke.
    Stap 4

  5. Smoke the jerk chicken

    • Place the chicken over the indirect heat, away from the coals.
    • Cover and cook, turning occasionally, until cooked through.
    • Baste the chicken with Red Stripe beer throughout to keep it moist.
    Stap 5

  6. Glaze and finish

    • Brush the chicken with honey and let it caramelise over the heat.
    • Drizzle the rum and ginger beer BBQ sauce over the chicken.
    • Rest briefly, then serve with the jollof rice.
