Walkerswood is not just a brand — it’s the benchmark. When people think authentic Jamaican jerk seasoning, they think Walkerswood. Made in St. Ann’s Parish, Jamaica, from scallions, scotch bonnet peppers, pimento (allspice), and island herbs, Walkerswood Hot & Spicy Jerk Seasoning is the blend that Jamaican restaurants and street vendors have been using for decades. The 4.2kg tub brings that professional-grade seasoning to Australian caterers, chefs, and ambitious home cooks at a price point that actually makes bulk cooking viable.
The numbers make the case clearly: at $130 for 4.2kg, you’re paying approximately $31 per kilogram. Buying equivalent quantities in 300g jars would cost over $250 for the same amount. That’s a 48% saving — and you get the convenience of one product, one delivery, one container on the shelf. For a catering operation running jerk chicken on rotation, or a Caribbean food truck serving at Sydney markets, this isn’t a luxury purchase. It’s the economically rational choice.
This is also the product for Australian events that celebrate Caribbean culture — multicultural festivals, Jamaican diaspora gatherings, weddings with Caribbean menus, school fetes with island food stalls. 4.2kg of Walkerswood will cover approximately 70–90 full main-course portions of jerk chicken (calculated at 50–60g of seasoning per kilogram of marinated chicken). For a wedding reception or large party, the maths works decisively in favour of the tub.

How to Use (Professional Scale)
- Large Batch Jerk Chicken: Apply 50–60g of Walkerswood per kilogram of chicken. Mix with a small amount of oil for better coverage. Marinate minimum 4 hours, overnight preferred. Grill or smoke at high heat (200–240°C). The tub’s wide opening allows easy portioning for commercial quantities.
- Pork: Shoulder or ribs benefit from 60–80g per kg, marinated for 24 hours. Low and slow cooking (160°C, 4–6 hours) produces exceptional results.
- Fish & Seafood: 30–40g per kg, 30–60 minute marinade. Grill or pan-fry on high heat.
- Storage: Refrigerate after opening. The tub stores safely for 3–4 months refrigerated. Use clean utensils every time to avoid contamination. If dividing for multiple kitchen locations, portion into smaller sealed containers.
