Jamaican Jerk Seasoning is a sweet and spicy Caribbean blend that is salt- and MSG-free. This blend is terrific with chicken, pork, fish, and even vegetables. It is also referred to simply as jerk seasoning.

The practice of treating meat with Jamaican spices for cooking and preservation date to at least the 15th century. It is associated with the Taino people, who were part of the Caribbean’s indigenous population; in practicality, the Taino had probably been using jerk methods for much longer to tenderize tough cuts of meat. They passed these techniques on to other inhabitants as they came to Jamaica. The term comes from the word charqui, or “dried meat”, derived from the Quechua language and adopted by the Spanish.

Jamaican Jerk Seasoning is popular with seasoning companies; olive oil shops; mustard, dip mix, meal mix, and subscription box manufacturers; and spice shops.

 

Flavor Profile

Jamaican Jerk Seasoning is hot, sweet, and fragrant, thanks to the spicy presence of Scotch bonnet chiles, sugars and sweet spices like cinnamon and allspice, and aromatic onion and thyme.

 

How To Use

Jamaican Jerk Seasoning is ready for the grill. Make a terrific Jamaican Jerk Chicken with this blend, either by rubbing it directly onto the chicken or letting it soak in a flavorful marinade. Or get playful and make some fun and fruity Jamaican Jerk Grilled Chicken Kabobs. Mix into ground beef with a little bit of lime and orange juice for the best, jerk seasoned Jerk Burgers you’ll ever have. Enjoy tropical flavors on a roll with a Jamaican Chicken and Mango Chutney Sandwich. Have dinner ready in under an hour with Jamaican Jerk Stir Fry. Toss sweet potatoes in jerk seasoning and bake for spicy Sweet Potato Fries. This would be terrific on roasted or grilled plantains, on fish for some Crispy Fish Tacos, or rubbed on eggplant before going in the oven or over an open flame.

Jamaican Jerk Rocks! Whether it's seafood, chicken, pork, roasted veggies...this IS the best and most robust Jamaican Jerk seasoning mix! Continuous flavor popping in every bite! You need this in your life!

Great Jerk! Wow this stuff is great. Used it on chicken breasts, and added to ground turkey to make Jerky Turkey Burgers. It adds a nice smooth heat (and great taste) that's not overpowering, but you'll still get that kick.

Totally recommend! I just used this one today! I made chicken wings with it and they were awesome. Just enough heat to know it’s there without knocking you out. I’ve missed that flavor combo since moving away from the south East. Now I don’t have too. Great blend of heat and actual flavor not just one over powering spice.
