๐๐ฅBuilding The Ultimate Greek Smoker With SAโs BBQ Legend Big George ๐ฟ๐ฆ๐จ ๐ฌ๐ท๐ฅ OPA! ThePhatGreek channel is officially levelling up, and things are about to get seriously smoky! ๐จ๐ฅฉ
In this video, Iโm hanging out with the absolute legend of South African pitmastersโGeorge Botha from Big George Custom Smokers! ๐ฟ๐ฆ๐ ๏ธ For over a decade, Big George has been at the forefront of South Africa's smoking and barbecue scene. Every single one of his premium pits is proudly South African, hand-built with precision using locally sourced, premium-grade steel. These bad boys are built for the fire and engineered for flavour! ๐ชต๐ฅ
We are officially collaborating to build a bespoke, high-quality craftsmanship offset smoker tailored specifically for my style of Greek cooking! ๐ฌ๐ทโจ Imagine low-and-slow wood-fired Greek lamb shoulders, smoky kleftiko, pork bellies, and whole chickens packed with Mediterranean herbsโall cooked on a heavy-duty custom steel beast engineered for perfect airflow and maximum heat retention! ๐ฟ๐๐จ
Weโre taking you inside the workshop to talk steel gauges, look at the precision engineering behind his famous offset fireboxes, and plan the ultimate custom rig that will change the face of Greek braai forever! ๐ ๏ธ๐๐
