Singer4Him Posted June 28, 2014 #1 Share Posted June 28, 2014 I've heard many people say that the jerk chicken at Jack's Shack is great but I haven't heard anyone say anything about the rice & peas? Do they serve it there? I can't imagine my jerk chicken without it. :cool: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the2006Junket Posted June 29, 2014 #2 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Hi there, just had the Jerk Chicken at Jack's last week. I think you could choose either Rice & Peas or French Fries....obviously one should choose the Rice & Peas!!! Enjoy! Lynne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Singer4Him Posted July 7, 2014 Author #8 Share Posted July 7, 2014 (edited) What makes the rice and peas special? :confused: I've only had rice and peas in Jamaica and I really enjoyed them with the jerk chicken. Been wanting more for some time now, so I'm planning to get my "fix" when we stop in Grand Turk next month! BTW, the "peas" aren't like what we call peas in the states. It's more of a kidney type bean but cooked with the rice, coconut milk, etc. it is excellent! Edited July 7, 2014 by Singer4Him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ti2m Posted July 10, 2014 #9 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I've only had rice and peas in Jamaica and I really enjoyed them with the jerk chicken. Jamaica is what makes rice and peas special. If you are ever in Negril I can recommend some of the best Jerk Chicken places ... all served with rice and peas. Or Hardo bread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capncarp Posted July 14, 2014 #10 Share Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) Asking for DW, who is a lacto-ovo vegetarian: does anyone know if the Rice and Peas have any meat substances (broth, etc) in it? From the examples and recipes I've seen, it doesn't look like it does. Edited July 14, 2014 by capncarp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the examples and recipes I've seen, it doesn't look like it does. Just water, kidney beans (they call them peas), and rice. Sometime they use coconut milk.
