Jerk Spice Mix

200g Prep Time 1 minutes   Rated:

Jerk has come into it’s own of late especially in restaurants around Australia. And who am I to be behind the times?? Never let that be said! It is an amazing slightly sweet and very spicy seasoning mixture that is used mainly to rub onto proteins prior to some serious grilling and charring over open flame. Whilst I resist the open flame, by all means, go for it.

Jerk originates from the Caribbean and there are as many varieties of mixes as there are islands. This is my version and I don’t mind saying, pretty damned delicious. It is great to keep in the pantry until use. So don’t be afraid to make up a batch and get yo mama on!
