Jerk spice is a popular spice in the Islands. Historians believe that Marrons, African slaves living in Jamaica, developed jerk spice.
One reason why I love the Jamaican culture and food is because it is similar to some of the West African foods. In fact Ghanaian slaves (my ancestors) specifically Akan tribe were taken to Jamaica and they were referred to as Koromantis.
Afromeals jerk spice is very aromatic with a blend of different aromatic spices to give you that Jamaican Caribbean experience.
You can use jerk spice to season anything. You can enjoy Jerk chicken, beef, goat meat, pork, fish, tofu, mushroom and even vegetables. It is very versatile.
