• Cook's Tip on Jerking and Jerk Seasoning
• Jerking, a method of cooking in Jamaica, involves rubbing meat with, or marinating it in, a fiery-hot, intensely flavored mixture, then grilling it. Although chicken and pork are the most commonly jerked foods, beef, goat, and fish can also be prepared this way. Jerk seasoning almost always includes some Scotch bonnet or habanero chiles, but we lowered the heat a notch here by using jalapeño. Other very typical jerk seasonings are allspice, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, thyme, garlic, and onions.
