Common cooking techniques in the Caribbean include grilling, stewing, and marinating. A standout technique is barbecuing, especially when preparing traditional dishes like jerk chicken. This method involves marinating the chicken in a rich, spicy mixture of allspice, scotch bonnet peppers, thyme, and other seasonings, then slowly grilling it over a fire. The best jerk chicken is typically cooked using pimento wood, which imparts a distinctively sweet, smoky flavor synonymous with authentic Caribbean barbecue. The slow-cooking process over pimento wood not only enhances the meat's flavor but also ensures it is succulent and tender, embodying the essence of Caribbean cuisine
