Why the Jamaican Beef Patty Is a NYC Icon | Food Grails
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Welcome to Food Grails, a new First We Feast travel series hosted by Miss Info. As a music journalist, she's travelled the world and seen the power of artists who rep for their hometown sound. Now, she wants to discover how foods define a city’s flavor-from Atlanta's lemon-pepper wings, to NYC's beef patties. These are America’s food grails.
In episode 2, Miss Info investigates how the Jamaican beef patty became a NYC icon. As the flaky meat turnover has infiltrated all aspects of city life-found in mom-and-pop bakeries, bodegas, pizza shops, and even street carts-the patty itself has inspired fierce debate. Because if you think a patty is a patty is a patty...well, you're dead wrong. From heated conversations with DJ Clark Kent, to philosophical musings in the back of a Rolls Royce with Upscale Vandal, here are what New Yorkers really have to say about the beef patty.

As a Jamaican still living in Jamaica. Idk what that DJ going on about. In JA we eat beef patty, cheese patty, curry chicken patty, breakfast patty (egg, bacon, cheese and veggies), soy patty, lobster patty, shrimp patty, curry goat patty, Ackee patty. We eat almost everything in our patties and we ain’t lose an ounce of heritage lol. One thing though that we as Jamaicans do love is food that is plentiful, full of meat and fresh

Hey clarke, I just had a beef patty with pepperoni, mustard, and olives on it. It was delicious. The Caribbean lady who made it for me by hand thanked me for my business.
I lived in the Caribbean for a year and a half. Little island called Anguilla. They had one real bakery that would open at 5am and close a little past noon. They easily sold hundreds of beef pattys a day. You had to race to get them before they were gone. My god were they heavenly. I'm back in NY now, and some of these pattys around here are great, but never as fresh as that little bakery.

He also said they do this in Jamaica 😏. Bottom line: Now I want a Jamaican beef patty 😁 And the beef patties with the pepperoni and cheese are bomb .

That's because the pasty was originated by the English. Remember, settlers brought over their foods from different parts of the world and imported/exported spices, fruit, food, etc. to and from different countries. This is why I argue with people about the term "soul food" which is southern cooking that's a combination of different cultures/settlers which was shared among each other. African female slaves were taught to make those meals. Just like the Jamaicans.

Ashley Dunn Okay but every new luther is a mix of another culture. It’s not like britian was never conquered. Also soul food is unique because the mixing of the cultures arose to create new ones. Like how modern english has french, germanic and latin influences but is its own unique language. An Authentic patty tastes completely different from a pasty now.

That's like saying Applebee's has the best sirloin steak in the US. Fck you talkin' bout? lol Best patties in the US are in Flatbush, Brooklyn at a Caribbean spot, not a chain.

Resell Cartel well it’s my opinion and many people agree that the patties form that chain are top notch.
I'm from Toronto and I was basically raised on beef patties. $1 would get you a pop n patty at the variety store by my school. I moved to Edmonton and was over the moon to find a little West Indian grocery store that sells patties. The brand I LOVE too. If it's not Tinnel's I promise you, I don't fuck with it. Tinnel's patties make me not miss my city so much.

All this chatter about patties in America (NY). Go to Jamaica if you want to have a real patty. I'm a Jamaican who currently lives in America and Golden crust and whoever else does not compare to Tastee, Juicy Beef or Mother's (Real Jamaican Patty companies).

It's Authentic tho, its a Jamaican family, following a Jamaican recipe. i assume their spices and preparation style is what causes the difference. Despite that, Golden Crust is way more successful than any other Patty franchise.

The Golden Crust CEO and that girl from the pizzeria has the right idea while most people are complaining cultural appropriation this gentrification they are thinking about expanding the authentic Jamaican experience to other people who have never ate before.
I love seeing people so passionate about food
Judnick is really smart, the point about wanting food Americanized rather than having it feel exotic is really good

Damn that food looks pretty good. Like a a great empanada. Having said that Clark Kent is elitist a all hell. Gatekeeping, calling people trash buyers. Man it's food and something to be enjoyed, no reason to look down on someone for preferring or buying a certain style.

I agree. To me, best way to have 100% authentic 24/7 is to be in the native country. At the end of the day, we are still making International food in the U.S. Not the same as having a Jamaican beef patty in Jamaica.

Started eating patties in The Bronx when I was a kid in the pizza shops. I’m an Irish kid that knows good food when I see it. I’ve had the mom and pop shop patties, I’ve had the Golden Krust and I’ve had em in the bodegas. It’s good food. I like mine with mozzarella, pepperoni and hot sauce.
I was born in NYC, and I had my fair share of beef patties. So did my dad who was born in India but lived in the city for many years. It truly does bring people together.

I love it. Thank you for sharing these amazing cultures coming together. Love it or hate it this is how the patty is evolving in Brooklyn. And to the Jamaican patty purest, I understand his point of view. But the girl is correct, most Jamaicans probably don't know much about any other island outside of their own island. America is everyone. There are people from every single country here in the USA. It's a beautiful thing. Food brings people together. One Love. Jah Love 🤘🏼

This is a very good video about a street snack that I've enjoyed since the 1970's. The video doesn't just give the history of the beef patty in NY. It also explores the many ways that different people feel about the patty, and their various relationships to the beef patty and caribbean culture in general. It explores the dialectic between the caribbean community which has profoundly influenced NY culture for the past several decades, and the ways in which caribbean people have assimilated bits of the culture of their new home. The video shows that even something so commonplace and trivial as food can be used to ask some very important questions and maybe even to learn some very important truths. Finally, this video makes us ask if something so commonplace and trivial as street food can reveal so much cultural, sociological and political information, what other commonplace bits of popular culture are worth exploring with the same intelligence, and what nuggets of wisdom might those inquiries yield? As for my own opinion on one of the central questions explored in this video: There is no such thing as a bad beef patty, for the same reason as there is no such thing as bad sex. Even bad sex is still sex, so would you rather have bad sex or no sex? Nobody wants no sex! Even a bad beef patty is still a beef patty. Would you rather have a bad beef patty or no beef patty? Who would ever choose to not eat a beef patty if they had the opportunity? That's what I think about that!

Nice, takes me back to the city (Cleveland, OH). That was one of my staple lunches, grab a beef patty from Dailys, 5 dollars worth of jerk wings, a deuce deuce of heineken, a pack of milds and two swishers for the hydro for later on.

I think it's great when other parts of the world embrace another cultures food and interpret it in their own way. Like how western Chinese food is different to food in China. Let others enjoy your food and put their own spin on it. The OG will always be the OG tho, so u dont need to sweat it.
