Chef Niki Gordon of Irie Jerk in Brooklyn demonstrates how to prepare authentic Jamaican jerk chicken, emphasizing the importance of proper cleaning and a thorough 24-48 hour marinade. The marinade includes a blend of dry seasonings like ground allspice, ginger, and garlic, complemented by a wet blend of fresh scallions, scotch bonnet peppers, pimento peppers, and Sorrel drink for a unique tang. The chicken is then slow-cooked on custom-built barrel grills over lump charcoal, infused with pimento berries to replicate the traditional Jamaican pimento wood smoke flavor, ensuring it is cooked thoroughly and moist, not dry. They prepare hundreds of pounds daily, opening six days a week, with plans to expand to seven to meet demand.
