Our Story
Habibi Chicken started as the big dream of a small town chef from Wagga Wagga, a place of legends…
After generations of secrecy, this young but ambitious chef decided it was time for the world to taste his family’s signature charcoal chicken recipe…
But what’s the secret, you ask?
First, we marinate the chicken for 24 hours…
then, we flame it to perfection over an open charcoal pit…
lastly, we use fresh local produce to make sides & salads.
We could tell you the secret to creating the juiciest chicken in town is the marination, or the type of produce you use…
But actually, the secret is in our hearts – we cook with love.
Our story is not just about creating the tastiest charcoal chicken in Australia, but it’s a reminder that the great Australian dream is still alive.
