Homemade Jamaican Jerk Seasoning Recipe

We already know who has the hots for spicy hot stuff in our family, yes my dear beloved husband, it is you I speak off. So in the past he has made his own homemade hot sauce as well as canning Italian hot pepper rings. I thought I would surprise him and whip up this homemade Jamaican jerk seasoning recipe for him.

The original spice originates from Jamaica. It helps that it only takes about 5 minutes to make this, so there is more time left for other things on the homestead. As with homemade versions, you are free to mix it up and exclude any of the ingredients you do not fancy. My hubby loves his hot stuff, so I sneaked in a few of this favorite hot peppers in there. He loves it.
