Global Grub DIY Jerk Chicken with Coconut Rice 

A fresh and accessible introduction to cooking around the world, Global Grub kits have clear step-by-step instructions and do most of the ingredient sourcing for you. The jerk chicken kit even packages the hot habaneros separately so you can play it safe or go for that classic mouth-burning heat. ($9.99) globalgrub.com.

Have you ever wanted to try a new, possibly exotic, recipe, but didn't want to have to deal with the leftover ingredients? Global Grub let's you try out a recipe with pre-measured kits, complete with step-by-step instructions. Carley Sheehy, the founder of Global Grub, joins The KFOG Morning Show and walks Greg and Bill through her sushi making kit. Find out if they make something delicious, or just make a mess!

WALNUT CREEK, Calif., Dec. 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Let the good times roll this holiday with the help of Global Grub, an ethnic food kit company that enables new cooking adventures, and its new strategic partnership with the ultimate cooking store Sur La Table...

A Foster City native is coming home this weekend to participate in the San Mateo Harvest Festival Original Art and Craft Show, hosting a booth of her food startup Global Grub.

Carley Sheehy, 30, will be at the event, at the San Mateo County Event Center Nov. 15-17, sampling and selling her products, do-it-yourself ethnic cooking kits with non-perishable, pre-measured ingredients and step-by-step instructions. Users then pick up a few fresh and basic items from a provided shopping list.

I absolutely LOVE this product.  My readers know that if I'm not sold on something, I'm not afraid to say so and the reasons why. They also know that when I find a product I fall in love with--and would pay FULL RETAIL PRICE for, that I totally love it...

When we're short on time, we may feel as if we have no choice but to go short on nutrition with prepackaged and boxed foods. But not all boxed foods are alike. In fact, we've found some really healthy options that are easy to prepare and delicious to eat. Try them out on your family!

#3: Global Grub

It doesn't get much easier than this: Global Grub DIY cooking kits ($11, GlobalGrub.com) include the dry ingredients you need to make satisfying ethnic dishes such as red chili tamales, Jamaican jerk chicken and Moroccan tagine with couscous...

This was such a delicious meal! The perfect blend of spices really gives this dish it's authentic flavor! And I love that I don't need to go looking for each spice in the store or in my spice cabinet! No measuring either! Every ingredient comes in it's own separate plastic pouch!...

I can honestly say I love kits like these from Global Grub. Why? First, they have every non-perishable I will need to create a delicious recipe. Secondly, I don’t have to go out and buy jars of spices I will rarely use and end up throwing out after 2 years. We tried the Jerk Chicken kit and it was so flavorful. With spice mixes for the chicken marinade and the rice, it was like being in the Caribbean! Looking forward to trying their Red Chili Tamales kit!

I have always wanted to make my own tamales at home, but I didn't know where to begin! There are certain ingredients that are not easy to find in my area such as assorted dried chili peppers and dried corn husks! Then one day I got a message saying I had a new follower on Twitter called Global Grub. As soon as I saw what that page was about I was intrigued! They make cooking kits for some really cool recipes like Jerk Chicken with Coconut Rice and Beans, Tangine with Couscous, Sushi Rolls and Red Chili Tamales...

Global Grub is proud to announce that their Jerk Chicken with Coconut Rice & Beans Kit has been named a finalist in the 2013 annual sofiTM Awards from the Specialty Food Association.

A sofi Award is the top honor in the $86 billion specialty food industry. The coveted “sofi” award stands for Specialty Outstanding Food Innovation.

Global Grub’s Jerk Kit is one of 125 food product finalists selected from a record high of 2,573 entries (across 32 categories)...

This kit allows you to make this popular Caribbean dish right in your own home. The jerk seasoning blend of herbs and spices are packaged separately from the dried habaneros—the peppers that provide the notorious heat of this dish—so home cooks can tailor the spiciness to their liking. Just add a protein and combine with the tropical coconut rice and beans side dish for a Caribbean crowd-pleaser.

KGO/Celebrity Chef Ryan Scott: “This (sushi kit) is really cool, one of those things you look back and think: why didn’t I think of this?”
