Tips for Cooking Jamaican Style
Here are some cooking tips that I have picked up along the way. Hopefully they can be helpful to you too.
- Jamaican nutmeg can be used to spice up various meat dishes, from red meat to poultry
- Lemon or lime juice can be used to marinate poultry and fish and enhance the flavour
- Putting water beneath your meat when barbequing or cooking in the oven will keep your meat moist and tender
- Allspice is a great flavour enhancer for all stews and gravies
- Your meat should be room temperature before putting on the bbq
- Marinating your steak in a dark ale or lager makes a tasty steak
- Boiling ribs with a little salt and a bunch of carrots, before putting them on the bbq, makes them extra tender and greatly reduces bbq cooking time
- Pouring flour over a greased pan, will ensure your cake or muffin comes out smooth, with no greasy edges
Great tips! thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI never know about boiling the meat with carrots prior to putting on the grill. I will certainly try this.

Have you tried the Jerk Chicken from the "store" on concession 12? I keep driving past.
