The National Jamaican Jerk Day is more than a culinary experience; it's a celebration of Jamaica's proud heritage and rich culture. Jerk, a method of seasoning and grilling foods that originated on the island by the Maroons, has become a global sensation, earning its place as a part of Brand Jamaica. It represents the passion, warmth, and distinctive flavors that Jamaica has to offer.

As we mark our 4th year, we encourage everyone to come together to celebrate the unique essence of Jamaican culture. Whether you're a foodie, a chef, a brand, or simply someone who appreciates the magic of jerk seasoning, this is your day! You don't have to be Jamaican to celebrate Jerk, the Jamaican way.
