King Of Jerk

The term jerk is said to come from the word charqui, a
Spanish term for jerked or dried meat, which originated with the
Carib and Arawak natives and eventually became
jerky in English.
Another origin is linked to the jerking or poking of the meat with a
sharp object, producing holes which were then filled with the spice
mixture. Like most Caribbean islands, Jamaican foods are derivative
of many different settlement cultures, including British, Dutch,
French, Spanish, East Indian, West African, Portugese, and Chinese.
The origins of jerk pork can be traced back to the pre-slavery days
of the Cormantee hunters of West Africa through the Maroons, who
were Jamaican slaves that escaped from the British during the
invasion of 1655.
