Jerk Sauce

Store opened jerk sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Check for spoilage before use.

Jerk sauce is fantastic for marinating chicken, pork, and even firm tofu or seafood.

Don't be afraid to mix it with other ingredients like soy sauce, pineapple juice, or coconut milk to create unique marinades.

For authentic jerk flavor, grill or roast the marinated item over charcoal if possible.

Rice and peas

Fried plantains

Coleslaw

Grilled pineapple

Using too much sauce, which can overpower other flavors or make the dish too spicy.

Not marinating long enough; allow at least a few hours for the flavors to penetrate.
