When using it as a rub we recommend 1 tablespoon of mix per pound of meat. Coat the meat and rub it in and be sure to cover both sides of the meat evenly! Once this is done wash your hands and place the meat in a resealable plastic bag (we prefer to use a large zip lock bag). Place in the refrigerator for at least two hours. For best results we like to leave it refrigerated for up to 8 hours before grilling. Jamaican Jerk ( 2 TSP)  combined with a 1/2 cup of oil, 1/2 cup citrus juice or tomato juice to create a wet Marinade.
