???? WATCH Best Moroccan Street Food in Marrakech, Morocco:

No Marrakech Morocco street food tour is complete without a visit to an underground pit where they roast whole entire lambs on a spit. This Marrakesh underground pit whole lamb roast specialty is one of the most popular foods in Morocco, and is up there with some of the best street food in the country.

We started off our day with a traditional Moroccan breakfast in Gueliz, before heading to a local place in the neighbourhood to watch the entire process of mechoui, the underground pit whole lamb roast. From the delivery of the whole lambs, we saw them butchered, put on a spit, lowered into the flaming hot underground pit, where they are sealed off with mud until the whole lamb is roasted to perfection.

The mechoui underground pit whole lamb roast is something that is special to Marrakech and a must try for anyone wanting to try some authentic, local street food in Marrakesh. The tastes and flavours are insane, with so much juiciness and tenderness to the meat, we were blown away by how tasty and delicious it was.

We hope you enjoy this Marrakech Morocco street food tour trying the mechoui underground pit whole lamb roast and traditional Moroccan breakfast in Morocco. Stay tuned for more street food adventures next week!

Mechoui - Marrakech, Whole Roasted Lamb - Marrakech Street Food l مشوي خروف مطبوخ بطيئا ، مراكش

Whole roasted slow cooked lamb in an underground oven

It did not disappoint ????

I arrived at 11.45am so not to miss out on the fresh stuff.
The men were just in the process of taking the meat out of the underground ovens.

The smell is amazing along the short narrow alleyway. Apart from the lamb guys there’s also chap on the corner selling trotters with chick peas made a bit like a curry. I have tried this elsewhere and it is Definitely worth trying but that was for another time I was here for flesh!

The menu & prices are posted on large boards on the walls of each eatery.

170dh per kilo for the lamb

150dh per kilo of Tanjia (slow cooked meat stew in a vase shaped clay pot)

I ordered 1/2 kg of the lamb and it was served immediately with bread and some cumin salt.
It was piping hot and was falling off the bones. The meat is tasty on its own but adding a little cumin salt enhances the flavour more. I didn’t need the bread but the mint tea went well with the rich meat.

This is now my favourite place and I will be visiting again & again.

12 Hour Lamb Shoulder - Ultimate Slow Roasted Lamb!

A 3 hour lamb shoulder is great. A 12 hour lamb shoulder is better! The meat is more succulent because lower heat means less moisture loss.

And the flavour in that lamb Jus is just WOW! Better than gravy, you can't buy stock that good.

Excellent one for gatherings - make up to 4 shoulders in one oven. Entirely hands off overnight slow-roast at a very low temperature with lots of braising liquid so it's safe. The meat is so juicy it reheats 100% perfectly - I make it overnight, then reheat to serve that night.
