How I turn cheap boneless, skinless chicken thighs into a $20 Jerk Chicken Sandwich.

Chicken thighs go directly into a jerk marinade, then put directly on a charcoal grill and seasoned with more Jerk Seasoning... and glazed with a Jerk Sauce until chargrilled and caramelized. Then this Jerk Chicken is sliced and put on a toasted brioche bun with an Island Slaw and a Calypso Sauce.
