Jamaican Jerk Marinade

This is a great marinade to use if you are looking for something different. It is very straight forward to make; puree ingredients, and done. Using either mango or pineapple is optional, but I think that it adds more flavor than to have it without. This jerk marinade will be good in the refrigerator for up to a week. It is great on all cuts of pork, chicken, turkey, shrimp, salmon, and other firm fleshed fish.
