In this episode of Hammy Eats, Nick Hamman heads to Talladega Grill in Lansdowne, Cape Town, one of the city’s most talked-about Texas-style smokehouses, known for low-and-slow smoked meats, indulgent burgers, and serious flavour.
Talladega Grill is the passion project of a former management accountant turned pitmaster, inspired by a road trip across the USA and legendary American barbecue joints like Franklin Barbecue. What started as a humble pop-up and food truck during Covid has grown into a Cape Town smoked meat institution, serving up some of the best brisket, beef ribs, and smash burgers in South Africa.
🍖 Nick digs into:
Fall-off-the-bone Texas-style smoked beef ribs
Juicy oak-smoked brisket that melts in your mouth
A loaded brisket cheesesteak with peppers and onions
The legendary smashed brisket & rib burger
A Nashville fried chicken burger with heat, crunch, and balance
We go behind the scenes into the smoker room to see how Talladega Grill smokes half a ton of brisket a week, using oak wood and traditional American barbecue techniques adapted for South African flavours and ingredients.
This episode also dives into the realities of running a food business in South Africa, from rising food costs to pricing, value, and staying true to quality while still giving customers an unforgettable meal.
