Jerk Seasoning
Fox’s Spices Jerk Seasoning 650g is a bold Caribbean style spice blend that brings warm heat and savoury depth to everyday meals. This dry jerk rub combines aromatic herbs and spices with gentle sweetness and chilli warmth, giving you the classic jerk flavour many people associate with Jamaican grilled chicken and pork. The texture is a fine, slightly grainy mix that coats meat and vegetables evenly, whether you are rubbing it straight onto food or mixing it into an oil based marinade. It is a mix of earthy allspice, thyme, garlic, chilli and fragrant spices such as cinnamon and nutmeg. Fox’s Spices Jerk Seasoning is an easy way to bring that Caribbean BBQ taste to oven bakes, traybakes, grilling and air frying at home without needing lots of separate ingredients.

What is jerk seasoning made of?
Jerk seasoning is usually made from a blend of herbs and spices that often includes allspice, thyme, garlic, onion, chilli, black pepper, cinnamon and nutmeg, along with a touch of sugar and salt. Different brands use slightly different recipes, but they all aim to give the same warm, aromatic and gently smoky style of flavour associated with Caribbean jerk cooking.
How do you use jerk seasoning properly?
To use jerk seasoning, you can either rub it directly onto meat, fish or vegetables with a little oil, or mix it with oil and citrus juice to create a wet marinade. It is best to coat the food evenly and leave it to sit for at least thirty minutes, or longer in the fridge if you have time, so the jerk spices have a chance to soak in before you cook on the grill, in the oven or in a pan.
Is jerk seasoning very spicy?
Jerk seasoning is designed to have a noticeable chilli kick, but the heat level depends on how much you use and what you serve it with. Many people start with a light coating to get used to the flavour, then add more seasoning once they know how much warmth they enjoy, and it can be balanced with sides such as rice, salads or creamy slaws if you prefer a gentler overall result.
