  1. I was raise on the country way of jerking. Only people from town cook jerk like that. I'm don't rate the way he's cooking it. I'm don't care what you all say but taking sugar and any sweet things in my seasoning is not jerk. My grandfather been coking since 1930. Roadside food the best, whole different way than what I'm seeing.

  2. Not trying to take away from Jamaicans, I'm just making observation and hypothesis. It seems like jerk chicken is based on Chinese cooking ingredients 100% Cantonese style same ingredients with slight twist on things I'm guessing that you can't get in Jamaica..

    Soy sauce (you know that's not OG Jamaican), ginger, garlic, green onion, all spice (Chinese 5 spice), Scotch bonnet (Szechuan red chili)… Look up some old school 'Yan can cook' videos it's the base of all Canto style cooking. I'm guessing the Chinese were farm hands also for the sugar cane fields
