    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.

      You'll probably need to find an African store, even then unlikely they'll have authentic Suya spice powder. It is native to Nigeria (and the North at that). In the U.S. a lot of Nigerians make "recipe" versions and trust me, might as well not even have it. This should be a all or nothing sort of thing.

YOOOO it was sooo damn good but that's all I made lol there's so much more ingredients that go into it. God bless next time after I get all the ingredients I'll make it.
