Best Chicken Cuts for BBQ Restaurants
Published on May 12, 2026 | Grill Kitchen Guide
Karachi's food scene features a wide variety of BBQ restaurants and street-side grill joints. For these kitchens, serving tender, cooked-to-the-bone chicken tikka and malai boti depends on consistent slicing sizes.
1. Tikka Quarters (Breast & Leg Pieces)
The standard chicken tikka requires leg and breast quarters. The pieces must be cleaned, with deep cuts made in the thickest areas to allow spices to penetrate and ensure thorough cooking on charcoal grills.
2. Boneless Thigh Cubes for Tikka Boti
Juicy tikka boti is best made using chicken thigh meat. Slicing thighs into even 1.5-inch cubes ensures they cook uniformly on skewers without drying out.
3. Wings and Skewers
Chicken wings are a popular addition to BBQ menus. We recommend two-joint wings, which cook quickly and present well on grills.
