1 whole teaspoon ground allspice = 5 whole allspice berries
A tablespoon of whole allspice is about 40 berries, and a tablespoon of ground allspice would be about 15-20. I would probably use two tablespoons and one teaspoon. Notice that many recipes call to cook with the whole berries and then take them out before eating, or else leave the berries in a marinade. If this is the case, ground allspice is not a good substitute. If you must use ground, you should probably only use half the amount or even less.
Allspice is usually sold as a ground up powder like nutmeg or cinnamon. However, in its solid form the Allspice is in the shape of a small sphere about the size of WHOLE Black Pepper. (about 3mm balls) When Allspice is used in cooking Corned Beef or Pickled Pork, it is used in its Whole form and discarded after cooking. A teaspoon is approx. 40 Whole balls & weighs about 3 gram total .
Allspice peppers are much more potent than the ground version. As a result, the amont of ground allspice to equate to 3 whole peppers is 4.5 Tbsp. It seems like a lot, however the flavor and essence of the pepper is lost mostly when it is ground and not freshly.

Not over 1 tsp. Ground is much stronger. Taste as you go.
