About this dish

Nyama Choma is a specialty of grilled or barbecued goat meat or cattle meat. Roasted meat is very popular in Tanzania and Kenya, where it is considered the national dish. The expression nyama choma means "barbecue meat" in Kiswahili. Nyama choma gatherings are informal with people convening around an open fire for any special occasion and at any occasion with a grill. Thus it is a social custom in much of Eastern Africa.
