Our Story

 Born and raised on the beautiful island of Jamaica, Sheldon (Owner & Operator) has had a love for cooking since the age of 8. He spent his years growing up in the flavors of the Island. His love for cooking came naturally. He recalls the sweet aroma and taste of the meals from the hands of his mother and father. They encouraged and nurtured his passion for cooking and still do, as can be seen by his father working along with him to deliver the exceptional taste of the Island they love.  

As he transitioned to college, he would cook for his dorm mates and friends. “Sheldon can make a 4-course meal out of a can of beans” they would say. He really enjoys making people happy with his cooking. He has always wanted to start a food business and that idea was fully supported by family and friends. He is married for over 12 years with 3 daughters who adore him. They all love his cooking; they often hum sweet songs while eating because the food is so delicious and so authentic.

In 2020, Sheldon finally decided to step out on faith and start Jerkulture to showcase his love for authentic jerk cuisine. He is a hard worker, loyal & very passionate. We can’t wait for you to indulge in our jerk culture and taste di island.
