Discover Authentic Jamaican Jerk. Believed to have originated with Jamaica's Arawak Indians, jerk cookery began as a preservation method. The Maroons of Jamaica, who once sought refuge in the island's Blue Mountains, eternalised the Arawak's ancient jerk technique by spicing or seasoning the meat, wrapping it in leaves, then placing it on hot rocks over a lattice of wood. This technique evolved with the use of different spices to the cooking style that we know today as Jerk. At the Jerk Shack, chefs apply the jerk cooking style using a marinade or paste that incorporates pimento (allspice) and scotch bonnet peppers. For generations, jerk has been a cherished culinary art of Jamaica, and now, jerk's pungent flavour and irresistible aroma have made it a worldwide favourite. With open-air seating and a rustic vibe, the Jerk Shack serves up authentic jerk with all the traditional accompaniments. A Caribbean experience is not complete until you've tasted this Jerk hut's luscious offerings. To find it, just follow the mouthwatering sweet 'n' peppery scent wafting in the air!
