Jerkfest 2007 Premiers on BET J

Airing during BET J's popular Saturday "Island Lime" programming schedule, JERKFEST showcases the spicy soul of Jamaican cooking, bringing the tastes and sounds of Jamaica through the talents of local personalities, reggae music, rhythmic dances and flavorful cuisine at Hedonism III's seaside resort location this past October.

"BET J and Hedonism III are thrilled to highlight that culinary tourism is alive, well and peppery hot in Jamaica, and are our viewers are in store for a tasteful production this weekend," remarked Cybelle Brown, Vice President of Sales and Business Development with BET Digital Networks and BET Event Productions. She added that culinary tourism also boosts economies and integrates communities with the tourism industry.
