That's right, you are basically using org-publish to create the html
files and put them in the correct directory for jekyll to process.

It's easy to create a mixed site. You need to create separate jekyll
layouts for the static part and the blog part. In the blog index layout
you want something like;

{% for post in site.categories.blog %}
  {% if post.categories contains 'mountaineering' %}
    <li><span>{{ post.date | date_to_string }}</span> - {{ post.title
}}</li>

  {% endif %}

{% endfor %}

In your org file you would have:

#+BEGIN_HTML
---
title: Montane Terra Pants.
layout: post
categories: [blog, mountaineering]
excerpt: "Montane Terras are lightweight walking-climbing trousers, with
several neat features."

comments: true
---
#+END_HTML

This would create a page which displayed posts categorized as blog and
mountaineering.
