There are wood samples from Jamaica - cedar, brasiletto, fustic, logwood, camphor, lignum vitae, satinwood, pimento wood and mahogany.
You can add tasty variety to this recipe by sprinkling a little dried dill over the meat along with the salt and pepper, or substituting a tablespoon or two of sliced, stuffed olives for the pimento strips.
