Start with a dry rub or start with a wet marinade; in Jerk Helen Willinsky proves that the possibilities for jerked food are almost endless. Willinsky grew up in Kingston and still lives on Jamaica. She knows the real flavors of the island as well as how to cook jerk properly. Jamaica is brought to life in this volume--you can smell the smoke and feel the fiery tingle of great jerk while visions of sun and steel drumming keep you company in the kitchen.

5 out of 5 stars Authentic tasting recipes   February 27, 2007
Ben (California)
i first had jerk ribs at a jamaican restaurant in long beach, CA. ever since then, i have been searching for a jerk recipe that tastes as good as the ribs i had there. i tried several recipes i found online, and none of them were even close. finally, i got this book, and made the jerk marinade recipe. bingo. this is it. that's the taste i remember! lots of the other recipes look great too. i'm looking forward to trying more of them.

Jerk Barbecue is very easy to follow. I am American and I married to a Jamaican. I wanted to start cooking meals my mate grew up eating. This recipe book is perfect. The dishes always turn out great!


5 out of 5 stars The best cookbook ever   July 5, 2002

I dare you to find a bad recipe in this book. Every single recipe is a winner. The Jamaican cole slaw is so good everyone who eats it asks me for the recipe. The same for the jerk chicken. I love this book.


5 out of 5 stars Absolutely The Best Jamacian Cookbook Ever!!   April 28, 2001

My husband and I have tried numerous recipies from this cookbook and each one has turned out 100% successful!! Helen has captured the true taste and flavor of the Caribbean with each and every recipe in this cookbook! This is our favorite cookbook!! We highly recommend her recipe for Dry Jerk Seasoning on Page 16!!!!! If you try her Jamaican Cole Slaw on Pg. 115, we would suggest adding pineapple. The sweet flavor makes it perfect!!! If you are going to buy ANY Caribbean or Jamaican cookbook, this is the BEST one by far!!!!!!

I have tried at least 10 of the receipes in this book and find it very hard to move on to others. The ones that I have tried are always repeated in some cases many times over. The Dry Jerk seasoning is a staple which I have prepared and given as gifts in fancy found jars (page 16). "Wid It" is a special treat that is a must. My all time favorite "Jerked Spareribs", that I place in a platter, cut ribs into small chunks, mix well with white rice, yellow raisens, cashews, and pineapple rings cut into chunks, smooth,put a flat layer of yellow corn on top, place pineapple rings on top of corn, spill all of the juice from the can all over the top and add a few maraschino cherries for color!! It's the BEST!!
