Why Suya is West Africa's Best Street Food

The Art of the Spice Blend

Suya is more than just meat on a stick. The soul of Suya lies in the Yaji—a complex, dry rub made from roasted peanuts, ginger, cayenne, paprika, and indigenous spices.

Traditionally prepared by the Hausa people of Northern Nigeria, Suya is expertly grilled over an open flame, rendering the fat crisp and locking in the aggressive, nutty spice profile.

We source traditional spices to bring the authentic taste of Lagos nightlife directly to Toronto.
