Directions

  1. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 8 minutes. Drain, rinse under cool water, and drain again.

  2. Meanwhile, combine mayonnaise, lime juice, soy sauce, vegetable oil, brown sugar, parsley, vinegar, allspice, thyme, marjoram, ginger, garlic powder, salt, nutmeg, pepper, and cinnamon for jerk sauce in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool.

  3. Combine cooled pasta and cooled jerk sauce with pineapple, ham, and onion. Place in the refrigerator until chilled and flavors have developed, about 1 hour.
