Fresh chicken for Nyama Choma & BBQ Parties in Nairobi
Nothing gathers friends like kuku choma. PrimeBird supplies grill-ready chicken for backyard BBQs, estate get-togethers and choma nights — butterflied (spatchcocked) whole birds that cook evenly over charcoal, meaty wings, and drumsticks that serve one-to-a-hand.
For a choma party of 20 where chicken is the star, plan 5–7 kg — say two butterflied birds plus 3 kg of wings and drumsticks. Everything arrives cleaned, chilled and ready for the marinade; order before 2 PM and it is at your gate the same day anywhere in Nairobi.
Hosting bigger? Wings and drumsticks are available in bulk packs at wholesale rates, and we can butterfly any number of birds at no extra charge. Pair the order with kachumbari-friendly gizzards for the early crowd.
Chicken is our most popular event protein, but PrimeBird also supplies fresh goat meat, mutton, beef, duck, turkey, goose, rabbit and tilapia for the same occasion — all KEBS-certified and delivered cold-chain, so you can order a mixed spread from one supplier instead of several.

Nyama Choma & BBQ — FAQs
How much chicken do I need for a BBQ of 20 people?
Plan 5–7 kg if chicken is the main meat — for example two butterflied whole birds plus 3 kg of wings and drumsticks. If you are also grilling beef or goat, 4–5 kg of chicken is plenty.
Can you butterfly (spatchcock) the chicken for grilling?
Yes — we butterfly whole birds free of charge on request, so they lie flat and cook evenly over charcoal. Just note it on your order or WhatsApp message.
Can I get chicken delivered the same day as my party?
Yes. Order before 2 PM and we deliver the same day, cold-chain, anywhere in Nairobi. For weekend parties we recommend ordering by Friday to guarantee your preferred delivery window.
How do I place a bulk order for an event?
Order online at primebird.co.ke, call or WhatsApp +254 142 121 043 with your guest count, event date and choice of meats. We confirm quantities, price and delivery time, and you pay by M-Pesa (Buy Goods till 4978718), bank transfer or cash on delivery.
Can I also order goat meat, mutton, beef, duck, turkey, goose, rabbit or fish for the event?
Yes. Alongside chicken, PrimeBird supplies fresh goat meat, mutton, beef, duck, turkey, goose, rabbit and tilapia for events at the same wholesale rates on bulk orders — many hosts mix a few proteins to give guests a choice.
