dinner at Back A Yard, a caribbean american grill in dtsj.
jerk pork plate. with fried plantains, dirty rice, and salad. spicy jerk sauce on the side.
goat stew- the daily special. soft and tender, a little gamey goat flavor.
mac n cheese. a must order for me.
beef meat pie. this is almost a meal in itself, but i ate 1/2 of it as a side. i topped it with a ton of ketchup.
we also ordered an extra side of plantains for the table. i LOVE fried plantains. the caramelized sugar from the plantain on the heat, seals in the soft gooeyness of the ripe fruit.. it’s like having dessert for dinner.
i always enjoy caribbean food bc there are sO many flavors.
