Actually gerryg there is an interesting observation I have made while living in Jamaica. It seems Jamaicans don't often eat Jerk Chicken or at least in the places I have gone to outside tourist areas that is.
Fried chicken or brown stew is available at most any cookshop that serves box lunches (and most times at sit-down places too) but Jerk Chicken is not often made unless asked for specifically. Of course I am referring to places around the remote location where I live in Accompong Town!
I found that eating as a Vegetarian (not a Vegan) because I did eat fish was more popular and readily available but you did have to try to avoid all the dumplings, white rice and harddough bread if you wanted to eat healthy!
As my best friend Marshall says, "nyam Earth food di best".
