    Wow! The food looks good. I am Jamaican, and I do make some of the best food in the world. You should try the cakes and pudding. Man, you have to take a trip to South Florida. Jerk is the most spicy.

      Let me know what you think…everybody love Jamaican food…it’s really a blend of Western European Spanish African and Chinese food…Spaniards owned the island first then the English took it over and brought in African slaves chinese indentured servants and Indians indentured servants….crazy because my grandfather is a white Scottsman my grandmother is Indian and my mothers father is black and her mother is Chinese 😂😂😂

      ​@jervontewashere That has nothing to do with Miss Lauren Hill. Jamaicans have been eating patties with cocoa bread before I was born and I am sixty years old. We usually have the cocoa bread with the patty if we are really hungry or for dinner especially on a Friday when we don't want to cook. 😂🇯🇲🇱🇷

    You should do another Mexican food video. Idk if the place you go too have gorditas but those are my absolute favorite. You can order chicharron, al pastor and fajita. If they don’t have gorditas you can try them on tacos. Some places also give you a cup of frijoles charros when you order those are hella fire too. Greetings from Mexico 🔥

    When you get the jerk chicken. Always get the jerk sauce on the chicken and on the side my boy. You got white meat so you need some sauce or next time ask for dark meat. That thang spicy I hear you sniffing 😭😂😂

    Jerked chicken should not really fall off the bone unless it is done over a pimento pit. If it is pan-jerked it tends to have a bit of driedness, both are still authentic. Jerked chicken or pork should be spicey, if not then it isn't really authentic and is more so a ripoff.
    Jerk chicken, as well, is not done in an oven, that is baked chicken with jerk seasoning dressed in barbeque sauce.
