The Jamaican nationals saw four women dip under 10.90, with winner Kerron Stewar

Looking for a way to spice up a summer barbecue? Try these hamburger patties, seasoned with a homemade Jamaican jerk spice mixture of Scotch bonnet peppers, allspice, thyme, cinnamon, nutmeg, green onions, and garlic. Scotch bonnets, or their habanero cousins, are insanely hot, so you don't really need much, half a 1 1/2-inch long pepper, seeds removed. Some people substitute j

As it is Good Friday, it's traditional to have fish for dinner. So I scoured the fish counter of the local Tesco. The shop itself was devoid of pretty much anything as people panic buy for the long weekend - you never know when you are going to run out of large chocolate eggs when the shops are closed for a whole day.I fancied having some haddock but there was only one of these left, so I thought I would be a bit adventurous and go for a fish I had not encountered before - Jamaican Tilapia.It turned out to be a very good choice. At about £1.90 per fillet it was also quite a bargain, and it was a really meaty flavourful fish - a lot nicer than bland old cod or haddock.I cooked a simple parsley and lemon cream sauce to go with the fish and served it with potatoes and some veg.Ingredients

Making efficient use of what's in the fridge has been a hallmark of home cooks forever. That's partially how hand-held pies came to be (you did see Alton's "A Pie in Every Pocket" episode, right?). The other day, Jessica used some leftover ground meat from the Goan Chilly Fries to make some Indian-style Beef Patties. This resulted in extra patty dough, that has been sitting in our fridge for a week. Sitting five inches to the right is a box of ground turkey meat leftover from the delicious rosemary meatloaf from Monday night. Being that tomorrow is Sal & Rochelle's son Nick's baptism, and that Rochelle is Jamaican, I guess I was inspired by all these variables.So I started sauteing one medium onion, finely-diced with kosher salt and ground black pepper in one tablespoon of olive o

I have been meaning to write this post for almost two weeks now but my internet connection problems, pre-Christmas workload and my coverage of the death at the calarlions.com blog has caused me to delay it. When I started the Calabar Lions blog for my old high school a few weeks ago I never dreamed that I would be blogging about the death of Herb McKenley. more images at detailed news coverage at calabarlions.com Herbert Henry McKenley was a great Jamaican and a hero to me and many other persons who thought highly of a man who has achieved so much during is long life. “Hustling Heb” as he was known by his teammates during is athletics career is still the only athlete to have reached an Olympic track final in all three of the classic sprint events, 100, 200 and 400 meters. Herb and his teammates literally put Jamaica on the track and field map in 1952 with 5 medals (2 gold and 3 silver), of those 5 medals Herb walked away with two individual medals in the 100m and 400m as well as a

A little old Jamaican lady went to the grocery store and put the most expensive cat food in her basket. She then went to the check out counter where she told the check out girl, "Nothing but the best for my little kitten."The girl at the cash register said, "I'm sorry, but we cannot sell you cat food without proof that you have a cat. A lot of old people buy cat food to eat, and the management wants proof that you are buying the cat food for your cat."The old lady went home, picked up her cat and brought it back to the store. They sold her the cat food. The next day, the old lady went to the store and bought 12 of the most expensive dog cookies. The cashier this time demanded proof that she now had a dog, claiming that old people sometimes eat dog food.Frustrated she went home, came back and brought in her dog. She was then given the dog cookies. The next day she brought in a box with a hole in the lid. The old lady asked the cashier to stick her finger in the hole. The cashier said

Three Jamaican sons left home, went out on their own and prospered.

While the Caribbean Islands have long been a sought after address for international real estate investors, Jamaica has lagged a bit behind many of the more popular islands. This means that on average, property in Jamaica costs less and has more room for appreciation than real estate on many other islands in this sun-drenched part of the world.

One of most artists’ dreams is to be picked up by a major label. These labels, such as Epic, EMI, Sony, Geffen etc are mainly U.S. and European based.   What would it take for the establishment of a major Jamaican label? Is it just resources? Industry knowledge? Or both?   With the increasing demand for reggae globally coupled with the need to keep our indigenous music ‘Jamaicanized’, is that not impetus enough?   I have a dream, that one day, a major label developed by Jamaicans for Reggae will emerge as a giant in the cutthroat label industry. This label, lets call it Reggae Country Records, will have its own A&R, marketing, promotion and distribution teams. It will have locations in Jamaica and globally and will be the epicentre for the development and promotion of major reggae artists’.   This dream can become reality, with the proper support mechanism of course.   Believe me, we have the talent and industry knowledge to make it a success.
