A smokie is a savory, pre-cooked sausage that's mildly spiced, juicy, and full of rich, meaty flavor. Often enjoyed as a quick street food snack, smokies are typically grilled or pan-fried to give them a slightly crispy skin while keeping the inside tender and moist. Popular in Kenya and other regions, they’re commonly served on their own, sliced into salads, or wrapped in a chapati or bread roll—often with a dash of ketchup, chili sauce, or kachumbari. Convenient, tasty, and filling, smokies are a go-to snack for any time of day.
