Jamaican Beef and Rice – Mommy Travels

We love Caribbean food, especially Jamaican food. It seems like every trip we take down there we discover more and more wonderful things to eat. I already loved the jerk chicken and was thrilled to find another dish I loved just as much. Even if your kids have refused to eat stew in the past try this one. There’s a super high chance they will love this Jamaican beef and rice too.
