Mbuzi Choma (Roasted Goat)

Mbuzi choma transforms humble goat meat into smoky, charred perfection through patient grilling over open flames. In Kenya, this dish marks celebrations and casual gatherings alike, where the meat's natural gaminess intensifies under high heat. The corn flour crust traps moisture while creating textured edges, a technique that rewards careful attention to temperature and timing rather than complicated preparation.
