Jerk Chicken & Jerk Pork

Enjoy this Exotic Caribbean Taste with all the Convenience and none of the Compromise!

Tropical Choice honours this Jamaican tradition. We marinate our meats in our distinctive jerk seasoning for hours before allowing them to smoke slowly to a savoury juicy perfection.

The careful process of slowly smoking highly seasoned meat over a smouldering rustic pit of pimento wood and coals is known in Jamaica simply as "Jerk". This method of cooking meat was introduced to the island in the 1600's by African hunters brought as slaves. It is told that they eventually added the seasoning method used by native Arawak Indians to their own. With wild boar a frequent target, they would smother the pork with a seasoning mix heavy in peppers, pimento and other spices, wrap the meat with leaves, and allow it to cook in its own juices over a lazy fire. The process was complete only when the meat was perfectly preserved yet succulent, right to the bone. Today, makeshift jerk shacks are a permanent fixture on the Jamaica roadside. With its perfect and particularly Jamaica combination of thyme, pimento, Scotch Bonnet peppers and other essential ingredients, the taste of jerk is not simply spicy, but wonderfully assaulting.
