Actually, the receptionist at my hairdresser swears by pouring a bottle of red stripe over the jerk chicken before cooking it. Apparently it makes it truly amazing.

Ne, I think you may live not that far from me, actually. Although I’ve never been to the Effra Hall.

I’m going to Brixton tomorrow to the hairdresser. I might get some jerk chicken for lunch.

Oh Well.

Had jerked mutton for lunch yesterday, with rice and peas, natch. The result: England took one wicket and the Windies scored quite a few.

Is this a wise luncheoning course to continue. I had ‘Canadian beef stew’ this time – I reckon that could be enough to see a few more wickets fall today.

Ne — if you could smell the jerk, that’s good enough for me.

I went to one of our local Trinidadian owned pub to ignore my companions+future ex-flatmates (non-cricket liking fools that they are) whilst I stared at the giant screen showing the England/WI game. As I’d already eaten, I sat in envy at all the people munching on the jerk pork… I had a packet of crisps though.

(It’s the Effra Hall in Brixton, South London for those who are interested in good food and funky jazz whilst the eating jerked meat. Shame the beer’s uninspired.If they had some nice beer, it would be the best pub int he world. Though I understand Darcus Howe is annoyed by it’s gentrification… sod him I say, but then I would)

Does that count?

Miriam,it should be fine.You can always buy a tin of jerk seasong KC is advertising.your local supermarket will have it.It is a very good product apart from Walkerswood one which is excellent.
as the sage KC says,” Add more chilli and thyme”.
