Jamaican Jerk Chicken & Mummified Mollejas

[surfinsapo]

I used some Jamaican Jerk spice I got from a vacation I went on to Jamaica . I also took some Mollejas aka Sweet Breads and rubbed them with Hoochie Mamas from Sucklebusters dot com and then wrapped them in bacon and named them "Mummified Mollejas" Very easy to make and eat.

I bet if you had 3 pops in you, you would not pass on them.. They are better and many other things we all eat here....It's only the thymus gland..

Its 12:30 am and I am just wrapping up for the day. I would eat all that! Love Jamaican flavor, allspice, habs, clove and on and on. My stomach is growling now, I need a sandwich before I turn in.

I would submit that cracklins are not scraps. Warthog anus on the other hand... that could be scraps. :P

Anyway... It all looks delicious. Whether we like them or not I know you had some good eats right there!! Thanks for sharing.

Just boil them in water or beer to firm them up... after that just grill/BBQ them to your liking.. They taste better than Chicken...

Assuming I'll ever see some fresh ones... How does one tell that the ARE fresh?

They smell like nothing when fresh.. I mean they really don't have a distinct smell at all....

Hey SS, I'm getting some calves sweetbreads from a friend that works at Whole Foods on Friday so I'll be grilling them then. Now I don't have any Sucklebusters, so I'll need to use some of the rubs I have here. I'll let you know how it goes and thanks for the idea.

Cool man.. I knew another Southerner would give them a try...Call me if you need any tips...Remember boil for about 10 minutes- rub- slow cook not too hot, then wrap bacon and wait till it crisps up...

Where does the name "sweetbreads" come from? I'll try it if I am ever down that way.
