Jerk Marinade

Taking it up a notch

The taste of Jamaica

Made famous on the streets of Jamaica, jerk marinade is known world wide for its depth of flavor, heat and preserving ability. The protein--typically chicken, goat, mutton, or pork--is traditionally grilled over an open fire of pimento branches and coals. The technique of "jerking" meat is said to have originated with the indigenous people of Jamaica, the Arawak Indians, who would slow-cook wild game over a wood fire, seasoning it with a blend of herbs and spices. When enslaved Africans arrived on the island, they adapted this cooking technique to the meat that was available to them, adding their own blend of herbs and spices to create the distinctive flavor of jerk seasoning.

Food with Roots’ authentic Jerk Marinade is a tribute to a centuries-old traditions and the soulful essence of island cuisine. We crafted our Jerk Marinade with a blend of exotic spices including the pimento berry, English thyme, fiery Caribbean peppers, and aromatic garlic, capturing the essence of Caribbean culinary heritage in every drop. Our recipe stays true to its roots, offering a balance of heat, spice, and sweetness that transforms any dish into a culinary masterpiece.
