There are a lot of flavors that come from the Caribbean, but in mainstream supermarkets outside of the Caribbean, Jerk is the most popular one that brands attempt to reproduce and sell. \u00a0While some may give you the full flavor of home, and other just give you a hint, it is a nice, and often more convenient way to start introducing your family to the scents and tastes of the Caribbean.

\"Grace<\/p>\n

Although Grace is a Caribbean brand, it is widely available everywhere, from local grocery store chains to Wal-Mart.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"French's<\/p>\n

I have tried this before (read my review here<\/a>), and it is a good way to introduce kids who may be used to milder flavors to Caribbean spices.<\/p>\n

Frenchs.com<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Lawry's<\/p>\n

I’ve used this before, and it is VERY mild with a little sweetness to it. \u00a0It worked out well in combination with Grace Jerk Seasoning and barbeque sauce when we put it on the grill.<\/p>\n

Lawry’s Website<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Weber<\/p>\n

This one sound really interesting! \u00a0Oranges and orange juice add wonderful flavor to meat. I like to slice them and put them in the cavity of my chicken along with onions and other spices.<\/p>\n

WeberSeasonings.com<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Great<\/p>\n

Caribbean spices have gotten so popular that Walmart, Safeway, and many other larger grocery store chains have their own store brands featuring the flavor!<\/p>\n

Great Value Brand Website – Walmart<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"A1<\/p>\n

This is one that I haven’t tried, but I am interested! \u00a0I like A1 when I’m making burgers, so I’ll bet this could make a nice jerk slider.<\/p>\n

A1 Website<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"KC<\/p>\n

This one I wouldn’t have guessed! I know them for barbeque sauce, but that’s it. Never considered that they might make a Caribbean Jerk marinade – sounds interesting. Makes me want to put something on the grill.<\/p>\n

kcmasterpiece.com<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\"Island<\/p>\n

Here’s an interesting one. \u00a0It is available online and off at major retailers and on hot sauce fan websites. \u00a0It is manufactured by Dr. Duphorn Johnston and Co. in Florida.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Caribbean<\/p>\n

I would guess that the acid in the citrus would almost cook the shrimp, so you’d have very little cooking to do later – but I no longer eat shrimp so you guys will have to tell me how this one goes!<\/p>\n

McCormick.com<\/a><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Olde<\/p>\n

I think this one was the most surprising to me. Cape Cod? Like Massachusetts? I guess it doesn’t get any more Caribbean\/American than that!<\/p>\n
