Meet Aisha Morris Jason Morris
What is the story behind your business' name?

If i could get $1 for everyone that took a picture of the name i would be rich! To be honest i prayed and asked God to help me find a really good name for my business. We did a lot of events around the city and everybody wanted their chicken 'hot off the grill' so first i thought of calling it that, but didn't like it. I then asked my self what was on the grill..then i penned Jerk Chicken Off The Grill. Then i said that was too wordy and took the chicken out. I reasoned that the name was perfect because that is the authentic way to have Jerk Chicken, right off the grill. Not the stove top or the oven. We get the best flavor when its done on the grill. Also, as a female to be honest i was more thinking of the authenticity, nothing else came to mind. Jerk chicken is world famous and we want our customers to experience the authentic flavor and taste, sizzling hot off the grill.
