Once i saw air fried I knew his was going to be a let down. When i was growing up in lagos, suya was on a tender grilled meat(usually goat) that would resemble teriyaki chicken with dry rub. Served on the side of the road by street vendors.

I use an air fryer to make suya, but there be tricks to it. Also for the smoky taste you can cheat with liquid smoke. The things cravings and no garden will make you learn. 😅

Originating from the Hausa Region in Northern Nigeria, suya, or tsire, is a smoked, seasoned meat skewer. Tsire is actually the name for the meat, while suya, although it's the mainstream name, actually in Hausa denotes "how it's made, not necessarily what it is.

⁠​⁠@@fistandpen2505I disagree, you can get good Suya in the US. There’s an African restaurant in New york, idk if the spice is sourced from West Africa but it taste the same as the ones I’ve tried sourced from Nigeria.

Segun was too cute holding out his food like that

Hi a guy from Côte d'Ivoire here. We love Suya over here and we call it Choucouya. Yes it hails from Nigeria but I think our folks make it right too, and we have also so many combinations. The people who make it though are mostly the Hausa people, and they're so good at it, we are blessed to have them.

I want Segun to be my uncle. He seems like a really humble and nice guy, and I want to try his Suya!
