This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would reduce the amount of brown sugar next time.

I'm allergic to pineapple, so I used mango instead. It was still delicious!

I tried this recipe, but I didn't have any jerk seasoning. I used a combination of chili powder, cumin, and paprika instead, and it turned out great!
