Grace Jamaican Jerk Festival Nov. 10
South Florida is home to the largest Caribbean population in the United States, equaling approximately 1.6 million residents, who have made undeniable contributions to the local community in culture, music, and food. The Grace Jamaican Jerk Festival is a reminder of the delicious impact the Caribbean has on American culture. From succulent Jamaican jerk chicken to flavorful jerk pork and tasty dishes from other Caribbean cultures, GJJF serves up an authentic culinary journey through the heart of the islands. The Publix Culinary Stage, hosted by Chef Irie Spice, will feature a special cooking demonstration by Boston-based Chef Darian Bryan, who is the subject of a national GMC RAM TV ad national campaign as well as Chef Reece of Chef Reece Kitchen in Davie, Florida. The 2024 Celebrity Cook Off will feature Local 10 anchor Alexis Frazier vs NBC-6 anchor Kris Anderson and local celebrity Chefs Alain Lemaire and Chef Winston Williams will face off in the Chef Clash. For 2024, GJJF will move to a new location at Miramar Regional Park to accommodate the expanded footprint and increase the number of vendors in order to reduce wait time for service. The main stage will feature a combination of classic reggae and dancehall acts as well as Florida-based performers. Throughout the day an impressive slate of DJs, led by Richie D, DJ Radcliffe, Extatic Sound and DJ Worm, will provide the soundtrack of GJJF.
