Excellent spice rub! I'm not a fan of cinnamon so left that out and followed everything else exactly. Very, very good and an easy weeknight meal.

I used this recipe for the Habanero Mango Hot Sauce. It came out absolutely delicious. I added a few slices of jalenpeno to it, minced a little celery to add to it, a single thin slice of ginger, and doubled on the habanero's. Little salt & pepper and it was fantastic stuff. The sweet flavor of the mango balances with these things so perfectly, but the mango MUST be really ripe...thats a rule of thumb for whenever you use a mango.

Added note: Me personally, I would curious as to push this even further with a third habanero. but 2 was just right. One is not enough.

this was my first dry rub, loved it hot off the grill, tonight we took the rest of the chicken and de-boned and re-heated. added to a green salad with Newman's own low fat ginger dressing. THAT really hit the spot

THIS CHICKEN WAS SO DARN GOOD. I LEFT THE RUB ON FOR 2 HOURS. BUT I DID MAKE A LITTLE CHANGE ON THE MANGO SALSA I SUBSTITUTE JALAPENO FOR HABANERO, BECAUSE I HAD EVERYTHING AT HOME EXCEPT THE HABANERO. I STILL GOT GREAT REVIEW AT MY HOUSE. MY HUSBAND CAN'T WAIT TILL I MAKE IT AGAIN. THANKS BOBBY FOR RECIPE. ABBY

I have been using a marinade jerk recipe for years and was hesitant to try a different jerk recipe. One day, however, I was looking for an easy recipe for chicken thighs. Based on the previous recommendations, this recipe stood out. It was absolutely delicious with a perfect meld of spice and heat.

Here are some of my thoughts: The chicken was very succulent but I would imagine that brining the chicken (if you have the time would make it all the more delicious. I'd also like to note that after I transferred the chicken to the cool side of the grill, I had to grill the chicken for an additional 10 minutes than what the recipe suggested.

Also, I think the next time I make this I might use an additional tablespoon of brown sugar. I did not make the mango salsa so the extra sugar might be an easy substitute.

This recipe is a no brainer, easy meal and amazing! You can make the rub in large batches and store for a busy day.

The spice on the chicken was very flavorful! I was tempted to coat the whole piece of chicken with the rub for fear it wouldn't have enough spice on it but I am glad I followed the recipe. It was DELICIOUS! If you are not a fan of spicy foods.. remember this is made with one of the hottest peppers.. you may not like the sauce. I however LOVE the heat and doused my chicken in it. Two thumbs up Bobby!!

Don't expect the chicken to taste like it was made at the Cha Cha Cha restaurant. Bobby Flay does not cook there. Follow the recipe and use bone in, skin on chicken and the correct spices shown, and stop complaining, its your fault.

I couldn't even finish it! I have to say though that I did not follow the recipe exactly, and that I am a novice when it comes to grilling. I made a boneless skinless chicken breast and the seasoning was nothing like what I ate at Cha Cha Cha in the Los Angeles area... now that was incredible Jerk Chicken. This seasoning did not hit the same notes...

The rub was perfect. So yummy. Never made jerk before and served to friends. WE loved the spice of the chicken. The sauce not so much.

The spice rub for the chicken is fantastic . Really flavorful. The sauce was good and went really well with the chicken but to me, for this dish, the spice rub was the key.
