Jamaican Jerk Hut

Think about the best barbecue you ever hosted. Now pretend you made kick-ass jerk instead of burgers, and served fried beef patties instead of potato chips, and you’ve basically got the Jamaican Jerk Hut. The place is super-casual (a grassy lot on South Street with a deck and painted picnic tables), super-cheap (two people can sup for under $30) and super-fun (BYO coolers of beer; reggae on weekends). Plus: We’re not kidding—kick-ass jerk.
