I grew up in Mississauga but never really made my way to Brampton to eat. I was invited out to Brampton for a discovery day of eating and on the recommendation of a blogger pal, was told that Portland Jerk was the place to go.
The place is located in a dirty little strip mall that you wouldn't think much of. The location is small, with a take-out counter and seating for maybe 8 people total. We arrived around 11:40 am and the place was empty. At 12 pm on the dot, the place had a line-up almost out the door.
The owners take pride in all their dishes and have been in business for 20 years. The small jerk pork I ordered (which seriously could have fed two people for $6.75) comes served up with rice and peas and creamy coleslaw. My advice: get your jerk pork drizzled in oxtail sauce. You will not be disappointed.
Since my visit, I have recommended this place to at least half a dozen people and now I'm recommending it to you, Yelpers. Get your butts out to Portland Jerk. It's worth the trek out to Brampton.
