Thank you Granpa Eddie for making your great sauces! My husband & I had the pleasure of meeting you at the Allaire State Park Wine Festival in Sept 2008. We chatted with you a while and decided to purchase your BBQ Hot Sauce. We both love spicey hot foods so we were excited to try it. We have made a few dishes with this sauce and were disappointed we had only bought one bottle. I remembered you said you had a website and we bought a few bottles just so we don’t run out again. Great taste with a spash of heat!! We are definitely fans of yours and will continue to purchase your sauces. See you soon at one of the local shows.

View Full Version : Way OT: Great Jamaican Jerk Sauce – Unsolicited Recomendation

A few years ago, at the annual street fair in Hoboken, I discovered the best
Jamaican Jerk Sauce I’ve ever had. A very dignified ex-Jamaican gentleman
was selling this sauce in a tent not far from where Lee Ross was showing his
aerial photography. I sampled and then bought a jar of Grandpa Eddie’s
Jamaican Jerk Sauce, and found it to be a great “secret ingredient” in all
sort of things besides jerked chicken and pork, for which of course it is
fantastic. I use a teaspoon in beef stew, a scant dash in scrambled eggs,
and a half teaspoon in salmon soufflé. It gives a subtle hint of something
that you just can’t quite place, but tastes very good. After buying that
jar, I contacted Eddie and bought several more for myself and friends. This
afternoon, Eddie dropped by and presented me with a jar of a special batch
he had made just for me, with several times the normal dose of Scotch Bonnet
peppers. I plan on not sampling this until I have paramedics handy — the
normal sauce is definitely not for the faint of heart, so this special stuff
might very well be life-threatening. OTOH, I thought that I should spread
the word among my aviation and metalworking friends that even the normal
sauce is well worth a trial.

Eddie also mentioned that he now has a website, and that he sells his
products on it. That’s at http://grandpaeddiesauce.com/. I suspect that
many of you reprobates (particularly the RAHnians) will appreciate something
like this. I much prefer the Jerk Sauce. The barbeque sauce is also very
good, but the Jerk Sauce is in a whole other dimension.

I have no interest in Eddie’s company other than as a very satisfied
customer. I only know Eddie through my few interactions with him, but he’s
a very nice and gentle man, and I believe that his sauce deserves a much
wider fan base. Enjoy.

Hi Leafygreen,

Thanks for providing this link for satisfied customers of Grandpa
Eddie Sauce to post my testimonial as shown above.

Your concept is so cool. You provide a forum for people such as
myself to express my appreciation in ways that I would not have been
able to if I was speaking directly to Grandpa Eddie.

Very smooth flowing website and excellent reviews and presentations.

Thank you.

Hi Grandpa,

My mother-in-law, Carol Gleason, met you in Freehold while she was
selling her pottery at a show. She purchased a jar of Jerk sauce as well
as BBQ sauce for me as I am a great fan of “hot”. She warned me,
though, that I was to cut one of the sauces as you told her it was a bit
on the spicy side. I figured it was the jerk but used it straight anyway.
Woof, it was hot. Very very enjoyable!

A few nights later, I took out the BBQ sauce and cooked it on some
chicken in the house (not outside on the grill). The fumes from my
cooking had both my children (who were on the other side of the house)
coughing! We had to turn on the fans to clear the air.

The experience was reminicent of my father cooking hot italian peppers in
the fry pan. My brothers and I couldn’t walk into the kitchen without
nearly choking!!!

Great job, keep up the terrific cooking, we really really loved it!

Warm regards,
Leslie Gleason

We ran into Eddie at a wine festival last year where we sampled his amazing sauces. We were hooked! We experiment and have tried with just about everything.
We put a just a dab of jerk sauce in white rice which gives the rice complex flavors and aromas. Scrambled eggs just aren't the same without a splash of jerk sauce. we also like to marinate thin-cut pork chops in the Jamaican BBQ before grilling.
Keep up the great work Eddie!

I received your Jerk Sauce last week and tried it for the first time.
I was truly impressed! My Jerk Session included Pimento chips,
Pimento leaves and a Weber bullet smoker. I made my own jerk sauce
from Jamaican nutmeg, cinnamon, allspice berries, etc. In other words,
I attempted to make my jerk the best I knew how to make it. In
addition to my own rub, I also used Pickapeppa and Walkerswood sauces
to compare. We smoked chicken and pork. The winner of our cook-off was
Grandpa Eddie – and not even close!

I suppose I could work on my own sauce a bit and make it as goo as
yours but why bother? As for the other commercial sauces – it wasn’t
even a fair comparison. Your sauce was the only one that used followed
the traditional recipe and the individual layers of flavor from the
cinnamon, allspice, etc. shown through. It was incredible! My hat is
off to you for producing such a fine product. In the future I think
I’ll skip my efforts and stick with Grandpa Eddie’s – why mess with a
winner!

Don’t change a thing! THANKS!
