In this episode of The Politics of Food, Ben Ferguson investigates the UK’s growing illegal trade in "smokies,” a West African delicacy that has been outlawed in Europe since 1987. Journeying through an underground economy that operates between rural Welsh farmers and urban African communities, he uncovers how black market traders are risking prison to buy and sell blowtorched sheep carcasses.
Ben also meets the sheep farmers and families who are fighting to change the law, as well as the scientists who warn that smokies can kill. At the center of this whole debate is Carmello Gale, a black market gang boss-or a food freedom fighter, depending on who you talk to.
On the face of it, this trade is a remarkable clash of traditions, and one that paints an accurate picture of modern Britain. As the smokie trail winds its way through rural livestock markets to the homes of African expats, we see how the politics of food is shaping our laws and-as some believe-criminalizing certain cultures.

You don't need to keep the guts in a animal to get smoky flavor in your meat. And again, you will have to forgive me, I don't see how a blowtorch fed by propane gives a better flavor than a good hardwood or cherry/apple smoke (or even charcoal for that matter) in a proper smoker.
It doesn't there's no way it can. There's no smoke being produced by the flame they're just cooking it. There's no smoking going on at all.
aureliusva I couldn't have said it better or more politically correct than that.
@ATL 1 I've been smoking meats for decades, and using gas and leaving the guts inside the animal equals amateur shit. This is just lazy African cooking. Real smoking takes wood or at the very least charcoal. Exactly where is the flavor coming from? The gas? The shit in the intestines of the animal? Sorry, I'll stick to apple, cherry, hickory, alder, mesquite etc. wood to smoke my meat.
aureliusva maybe smoked shit tastes good
Logically the smokey flavor would be produced by burning and smoking off both the hair layer and top skion layer. What the consumers refer to and recognize as a "smokey flavor" is simply the remaining sent and taste of burned off hair and top skin. I never ate it but we have all smelled burned hair, so logically this is the "enhancer". We can argue all we want that a burned hair smokey flavor is not nice, but that is not up to us to determine. Personally i would wood smoke it, but that would not give the same smoke flavor as these smokies would have.
Having that said, i do not fully understand what the issue is in Europe? Is it the inside that is left while cooking and then removed? Cause that is just an operation procedure instead of a taste issue. Just remove the insides like regulated and then facking smoke it! Problem solved i would assume?

They are not intelligent enough to use a smoker.
@@johnjackson678 Smokers would not do what they are trying to do... also they would likely cause the organs to rupture and accelerste the necrotic process in comparison to the blowtorch which only burns the skin.
Take out the organs first. But they want the skin on
@@justinjohnson3847 You clearly have never killed anything. You can take the cuts out without doing a gut cut which cuts skin.

IndraEMC Your country is so pathetic and weak you don't even have jokes over there? The real world is laughing at you.
Can you still consider McDonald's to be food?
Why do they keep the internal organs inside, there is literally shit inside the sheep getting heated up while they torch it. Torch it after you remove internal organs and it becomes just as safe as any other meat. ITS THAT SIMPLE; whats the point of this video.
Erik Rosas Some cultures still have that stone age mentality.
Aaron Gilbuena Yep. Let nature take it's course by getting rid of the humans born on the wrong side of the gene pool.
Aaron Gilbuena yes if they want to buy a goat and do this they can. but its these people selling meat that can kill people that are breaking the law.
Raju Kumaran That is by far the stupidest racial comment I've heard for the year. Congrats you are now the dummy of the year.
Raju Kumaran Wow... this isn't about race or skin color for me.. its about being safe. This is a stupid thing to do. simply cut it open, gut it, clean it and smoke it all you want. Hell clean the guts and throw them in there and then smoke it it doesn't matter.
But to reply to what you said about them crapping out that bacteria instead they would probably die, remember these people aren;t in a third world country anymore they are in europe, Any resistances they built up to these things would be long gone.
You have to understand why the government banned this, its just not safe. And if you sell someone something edible and it kills someone thats on the seller and opens them to lawsuits.
This isn't really honest.
1. It is a requirement in a "smokey" that you have to cook it with the the spine and skin intact which eating nerve cells can result in eating BSE(or mad cow). Cooking it won't do a whole lot.
2. Cooking something with the organs intact is pretty dangerous. He is only creating optimal conditions in this video. Do you really believe your butcher is gonna throw out the corpse if he knicks the stomach?
3. You are selling cooked meat with salmonella on it. You can't expect everyone will re-cook. Cooked food is generally considered a finished product by the government
African countries have an absurd mortality and disease rates. Don't be so quick to adapt their standards. Western countries use to do things like this but we don't anymore for a reason

Um buy sheep meat and then smoke it yourself in smoker or grill I dont get it
But they need that "veetameen"
They would need to buy their own dead sheep body... People butcher the meat and then sell it. That's not what they need. Part of the process is torching it with fur and skin on. IDIOT
@@iMatthewWilliams but thats the problem is that doing that is unhealthy just smoke the meat like a normal human
dis is not da wae my dude
Westerners do everything better.
its just a whole sheep roasted with a blowtorch
doesn't sound that hard to produce similar product using more cleaner methods if they think its unsafe to eat
It probably wouldn't be too tricky, sure. It would cost more, whereas black market stuff is tax free / cash sale etc.
It’s not unsafe to eat, it’s how it’s being prepared by the blackmarket and how it’s being transported that’s causing the disease and danger of eating it
The western world would laugh its ass off..
It could easily make Smokies and add it to their meat range.
3rd world loses out.. and pays double.
why not remove the guts before flaming and in addition rubbing down the skin with industrial sanitizer beforehand? It sounds like this combined with cooking it should get rid of the bacteria the same way it would on a chicken?!
That was more or less my thoughts, too, especially if the people buying it aren't using the offal anyway.
the TOMSTER maybe its not the original way the African do it
Random Guy390 I dont know do they Even have Food in africa?
Yung TedBounty lol of course they have
YOU COULD ASK YOUR MOTHER
"A 1987 ban on smokies created a black market"
The video can stop right there. Legalize and modernize the method, and hold producers liable for improper food handling practices that result in torts. Saved you 21:15 of your life.
@TheNewyorkdragon I'm a huge Darwin fan.
TheNewyorkdragon natural selection :)
That's not the issue.
The reason it's banned is due to the numerous diseases that come from the animal not being skinned and the nervous system remaining intact. They can't modernise it because if they did it would be a completely different meat product.
Also selling this to the masses, most of whom aren't aware of the risks associated with meat production, would be like selling cigarettes to children.
Exept none of what you said is an actual reality so you didn’t save anyone shit.
WOW you're more scarsd of police showing up and getting fines rather than getting sick or possibly risk your life. professors and researchers who studied in their fields for tens of years say its dangerous yet you want others to say it is okay. you sound like an antivaxxer, if you aren't one yet
why not gut it then smoke it?
@@jrpapi5 For that guy to have an IQ he would need a basic level of reasoning + comprehension
@@jrpapi5 you haven't answered the question why don't they take the guts out ?
@@jrpapi5 do gou have a better explanation? Many Africans believe setting their ak47s to the 1000M mark "unleashes its full power" while all if does is make them shoot absurdly high when they aim if they even do aim.
It's much easier to burn all the furr if the sheep not gut, if you gut it and then smoke it's gonna burn the meat, there's a way to make proper smokey, a mongolian khorkhog have the same method but they gut the sheep with out open the stomache, but only people with experience are capable carry out those procedure, they gut all the internal organ through the slit slaughter in the neck, remove all the bones and meat with out even bother open the sheep stomache

I don't understand why they don't just gut the sheep, cold smoke the carcass, then it can be cooked later. Anyway, well rounded documentary. The presenter was good too.
Invest in a food smoker or charcoal grill... It should do the same job with less health concerns
No, the same health concerns would be there. It does not matter how you prepare diseased (prion-containing) meat, it will still remain infectious.
@@K3NatCSS burning the skin off the meat with a blow-torch vs. Smoking with natural wood. The two scenarios will have the same health concerns? Ok, sure... If you say so
@@K3NatCSS And how can you tell that this sheep meat has prions or not?
@@jeffreyleung4806 Smoking it would not have the same effect as what they are doing. In fact smoking it the way the meat is prepared with all the organs on the inside would encourage rapid bacterial growth. Charring the skin with the blowtorch does not because the heat does not spread past the top layer of the meat.
@@KnightofAntiquity Through testing, though you wouldn't waste your money. Preemptively, you don't select elderly or sick animals for production of food for this exact reason. Read up on how hunters select their prey and discern whether a felled animal is suitable for eating or if it needs to be disposed of.

As long as it is done hygienically, properly regulated and if the methods are improved, I do believe that Smokies should be legal.
It's bad enough that society must collectively pay for some people's poor yet legal health choices, but to pay for someone's reckless and illegal health choices is infuriating. Such people, once confirmed, should be made to take on the debt incurred to save them.

The big issue here is the possibility of "prion" diseases like TSE. Although the form of this which occurs in sheep (scrapie) does not appear to be transmissible to humans, instances of BSE or "mad cow" may be a warning to avoid this kind of possible risk.

Khiam Stand meth makes people happy should it be legal?
So many seem to have missed the point here (but few have been to an abattoir and seen how it works), the guts have very little to do with it, essentially that part of the process doesn't change. The issue lies within the wool and outer skin, a haven for bacteria. During the slaughtering process this can't come into contact with the meat for fear of contamination. Pigs are de-haired and scolded using hot water and paddles with the guts still inside. Once the guts are removed the carcass is fit for consumption. With lambs and ewes there's no way to properly ensure the skin is completely safe without taking it off and often sheep will leave the farm with lesions and sores. I'd certainly eat smokies but would want to see the condition of the animal first.
Mental note
Don't eat shawarma in the UK
Catnium that's not African or Indian it's Turkish Arabic dw your safe ish ...
mans gotta eat
eat shit apparently
Let me get this straight...
1. Producers blowtorch the animal (killing most of the bacteria).
2. Producers sell the meat to customers.
3. Even though the meat was blowtorched, the customers still boil and fry the meat, and the UK still finds this meat to be unsafe for the consumption?
Bacteria may survive and not be 100% killed
Because the animal is not gutted, torching the animal kills the bacteria on the skin but a lot of bacteria still remain in the gut of the animal, particularly in the intestine. Removing the guts would greatly reduce the risk of contamination but the EU still wants this practice banned as part of imposing wide blanket laws on its members.

I'm honestly more concerned about the raw lamb in the buggy just chilling than I am people eating smokies tbh
Smokies, munchies... wasn't thinking 'bout sheeps at all
it seems like the government and health officials are more interested in turning migrants into a more "westernized" culture... disregarding the fact that regulation and safe health standards on smokies would
1- smother out illegal production
2- open up a market for the meat that goes to waste
3- open up cultural heritage to others, adding diversification. (the best of all worlds)
4- most importantly, would set a standard what could and could not be used for the production of smokies. no illness, no diseases. how to properly prepare the meat so it is SAFE for consumption
the world has evolved to the point we need to evolve with it, this is people's heritage we are talking about here... when you make their heritage illegal, they won't think twice about breaking the law to get back to their roots. which leads to this moral dilemma...
Glovers Rage yes, we must adopt their culture even if we get sick
Atlas Shrugged fuck trump
the problem is that the culture says to cook it full with all its shit and urine in it. this is not safe!
If the animal was gutted and cleaned properly im sure it is perfectly legal to smoke like that.
There is no moral dilemma, if you move to another country, you respect the laws of that country.
these people are not in Africa anymore.
there merely burning the hair and bacteria off with the blow torch not cooking it. btw haggis.tripe and sausages.
Sounds better than any other food served in England
what the hell is the point of even making this illegal? wtf. its probably fucking illegal because people are cooking this shit in bad conditions if it was made professionally it wouldn't be 'dangerous'

Why didn't they take the organs out BEFORE smoking it? someone explain plz.
the great tradition of eating boiled excrement.
I cant get over the bashing of the goats head with the cleaver scenes
The problem is because while the guts are still in the carcass. Just strip the guts out and toast the meat. What's the freaking big deal? Just a simple change in the process and its done deal.
Alex I was thinking the same... I mean, here in the US we can buy skin-on meat from a variety of animals. Then you can dry age it or not.. and instead of a blowtorch (how is that "traditional" African cooking? I guess maybe they used hot coals in the old days..) you can use a... wait for it... smoker! Impart the smokey flavor naturally and cook the meat tender all in one step.
800lb Gorilla Yeah, it's mutton / lamb. Nothing exotic about it. Blow torch is used to speed things up. The Brits apparantly have issue with the guts. So yeah, just take it out. They can't seem to wrap their heads around it. It's not Halal food.
Alex halaal has to be quick death with no torture or blood. By the looks of it it is halaal although it is not clean so i don't know.
Sounds like a traditional process that can be slightly updated to be healthier and standardized.
I find it hard to believe that anything cooked with a blowtorch is "traditional".

I don't think you've ever ate meat on the bone
@@lilnine3293 if your eating meat off the bone and its not soft and delicate then you dont know how to cook, whether its roasted, fried, or grilled/smoked...
Great Research
very interesting. i just can't however understand the issue with being "too safe" and "too hygienic". There's a reason why there's an epidemic in Africa. Standards in food sanitation is also a reason why other countries develop further and faster than other nations. Those people willingly chose to become migrants in the UK, I would hope that there should be a certain amount of adaptability. These people ever hear of a smoke house? Or a normal grill, just cover the top? You take normal lamb, put it in a smoker.. for a few hours, you dont even need to boil it. It would be tender already.
Is trying to leave a war zone or 3rd world country really a choice? Or simply trying to survive and live a decent life?
Point made, But there is value in having restrictions , I doubt the UK's reason for not having smokies is to soley make them feel extra miserable about themselves. Health and sanitation goes hand in hand with having a good economy. Thats what i think anyway. I've been to the middle east, as much as i want a thick slab of bacon for breakfast - you just have to respect the country you're in. Culture and all.
Ley S. Except the legal and "safe" industry is the same that fed cattle remains back to herbivorous cows creating the mad cow outbreak.
Ley S. There's a range of food that is delicious, but may not be 100% safe. Take non-pasteurized cheeses and milk. They can be a source of Listeria, but some people are willing to take the chance.
That must smell really bad.
Nope. It smells like Chicharonne.
We do this in the US as well. When you are dry curing a deer you burn the outside of it, but you remove the innards first. Then you pack it with salt and brine injections.
