Jerk cooking is the soul of Island Grill – hot, spicy and full of life. Centuries ago (way back inna time), Jerk cooking was born in the lush tropical hills of Jamaica. Runaway slaves called the Maroons, used native spices like thyme, pimento berries (all spice), escallion and fiery hot scotch bonnet pepper, to season meats that were slowly roasted over pimento wood to create this deliciously spicy dish. It is out of this technique that Jerk cooking was born. At Island Grill, we have brought this tradition to your plate with our own unique combination of these very same spices on our chicken to create an authentic jerk taste. islandgrilljaXXXX
