FACTORS THAT MAKE A BRAAI TRULY UNIQUE

A braai in South Africa is way more then just a way to cook your food. It is a culture, a gathering, a way of life- if you will. here are a few factors that make a South African Braai unique.

MEATS (Duh)
Boerewors, lamb chops, T-bone steaks, chicken “flatties”, snoek, kabeljou(cob), sosaties, kebabs

CARBS
Braaibrootjies, pap( traditional African staple), tomato & onion relish, chakalaka & much more.

DRINKS
Brandy & Coke, beer, siders and beautiful South African wine.
All of these come at different shapes, strength,flavours and other variations. Just  as every household has their own traditional way of preparing and cooking these delicious meals and drinks!

In South Africa, we have a day that has been dedicated to the braai (It’s actually heritage day) and  is celebrated annually on the 24 September.

Braai is such a big part of South African heritage and tradition. It’s a day South African of all shapes, colours and sizes unite with their friends and family by a fire.
