At the heart of Jamaican cuisine, jerk seasoning embodies a centuries-old tradition combining fiery peppers, aromatic allspice, and earthy herbs like thyme and garlic. Historically, jerk cooking was a method developed by the Maroons, escaped African slaves, to preserve meat with spices and smoke. More specifically, they used Scotch Bonnet chili peppers, allspice, and thyme to create this flavourful, preservative-rich rub.
Our blend balances the fiery heat of Scotch Bonnet chillies with warm spices like allspice, freshness from thyme, garlic, and ginger and a sweet kick of mango - delivering our creative take on this amazing seasoning.
Whether it’s for a beachside barbecue or a cozy dinner, Caribbean Jerk promises a burst of bold, aromatic flavour inspired by Jamaica’s culinary heritage.
