FYI - Jerk Fest
Hi all:
A little Jerk Fest "history".....
The first Jerk Fest (that I know of) was in October 2002. It was originally created as one of the events that Friends of Jamaica USA held during the first FOJ Bashment. The two FOJ Bashments (October 2002 and October 2003) were two week long events intended to attract FOJ members, and others, to Negril during the slow season, and to spread around the tourist dollars to varying venues, hotels and restaurants. There were events and dinners everyday for the two weeks, one of which was the Jerk Fest at Three Dives. Lloydie and Paula did a great job getting it pulled together and there were jerk vendors from as far away as Boston Bay (Portland). If I remember correctly, one of the vendors from Portland, cooking with the open pit method - with pimento wood and a tin cover - won the award for best jerk.
I am glad to hear that Three Dives has continued the Jerk Fest, even though the time of year and approach may now be different.
