Preparing the Jerk Marinade:

  1. Blending Ingredients:
    • In a blender or food processor, combine chopped onion, green onions, garlic, ginger, Scotch bonnet pepper, thyme, soy sauce, olive oil, brown sugar, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, black pepper, salt, and lime juice. Blend until you achieve a smooth marinade.
  2. Marinating the Pork:

    • Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C).
  2. Preparing Roasting Pan:
    • Place a roasting rack in a roasting pan. Add water to the pan to create steam during cooking.
  3. Roasting Pork:
    • Remove the pork from the marinade and place it on the roasting rack. Roast in the preheated oven for 2 to 2.5 hours or until the internal temperature reaches at least 160Β°F (71Β°C). Baste the pork with the marinade or pan juices occasionally.

Optional Sauce:

  1. Creating Sauce:
    • In a saucepan, combine pineapple juice, ketchup, brown sugar, and soy sauce. Simmer over low heat until the sauce thickens.
  2. Serving:
