Read 2 minutes

The hashtag ‘Saltbae’ drove the internet wild this week after a hot Turkish butcher showed off his salting skills and an almost erotic appreciation for a hefty slice of meat.

Nusret Gökçe who is also an enthusiastic chef at Nusr-Et Steakhouse restaurants in Turkey and Dubai, and a father of nine children, has amassed a huge following on his Instagram account as well as inspired remakes and fan pages, including an emoji!

A notable parody however, is from Seth Gor, one of the most popular viners in Kenya! It is one that has probably given Africa its own #SaltBae
