About Jerk Foods:  The culinary art form of "jerking" meat was formed in the island of Jamaica. Jerk refers to the way that any meat: chicken, beef, pork, goat, fish, vegetables or fruit is seasoned and cooked. Jerking calls for special a marinade or paste that includes pimento, also known as allspice, and scotch bonnet peppers, also known as habenero.
