One may readily purchase "BOSOA" from mostly persons who roast meat to sell, generally along main streets.
On the road to Kaase, it is particularly prevalent along the street of the Kumasi Abattoir, also known as "Manyanka," which is not too far from Brewery Junction.
The vendors, who are all men, take use of the neighboring slaughterhouse to ensure that there is always enough meat to sell to customers.
The offal or intestines of a cow, sheep, or goat are used to make the delicacy known as bosom.
When the meat has been seasoned and partially cooked, it is placed into a beef or mutton offal before being charcoal grilled.
Similar to kebab, it can be ordered with sliced onions and powdered pepper to taste.
