Jerk Turkey

== Description ==
This the main entree for a single person's feast or a couple's budget banquet, but you can cut up a whole turkey and prepare it as described in this recipe.
== Ingredients ==
* 1 large turkey thigh, fresh or thawed if frozen, skin and fat removed
* 3 cups white vinegar
* 2 cups brown sugar
* ¼ cup fresh ginger root, peeled and finely grated
* 1 large red onion, peeled and chopped
* 2 tablespoons dried allspice berries
* ½ cup (more or less) Pickapeppa sauce, or any of a number of other Caribbean-style pepper sauces that are commercially available (Tabasco makes a good one, and Busha Browne's Jerk Sauce also works well)
== Directions ==
# Stab the turkey thigh repeatedly with a meat fork to make it easier for the marinade to thoroughly penetrate the meat.
# Mix the vinegar and sugar in a 2 quart or more glass casserole dish (one that has a cover).
# Stir until the sugar's dissolved.
# Stir in the ginger, onion and allspice.
# Put the turkey in the dish, turning it a few times in the marinade and spooning a few of the ginger strands, allspice berries and onions onto the top of the meat.
# Cover the dish and put in in the refrigerator.
# Let marinate for a day, turning the meat and stirring the marinade ingredients several times.
# Prepare the barbecue fire of your choice.
# Cook the turkey on the barbecue, brushing on the Pickapeppa sauce as you turn it.
# The turkey will be done when all juices coming from it turn clear.
