Happy Braai Day

 

 

This year try braaing with chicken cuts ( thighs and drumsticks ) or a ” Flattie / Spatchcock chicken ” – perfect for braaing.

 

CHICKEN

These can be marinated or spiced before hand and will be delicious on the braai.

Chicken Pieces such as thighs and drumsticks are a popular choice for braaiing. These cuts normally take about 30 to 40 minutes on the braai. The secret to braaing chicken is to turn it often to ensure well-cooked chicken without burning it.

You can also do a “ Flattie “ or “ Spatchcock whole chicken “. These are normally available marinaded. Peri-Peri or BBQ are popular flavours.

Chicken breasts ( boneless and skinless ) can also be braaied and do not take long to cook on the braai . About 5 to 6 minutes per side.

Chicken Wings are also great on the braai and they dont take long to cook and can be taken off and served as snacks or a starter.

MEAT

Boerewors is absolutely essential on the braai. It should not be overcooked and dry. There is nothing nicer than a juicy piece of wors hot off the braai.

Lamb chops are also an absolute must, although pork chops are also perfect for the braai.

Steaks are excellent for the braai, whether rump, sirloin or T-bone.

Sosaties are also ideal for braaing and butchers can prepare beef, pork, lamb and chicken sosaties. By marinating these in an array of marinade flavours, your butchery can offer braai fanatics a wide choice to cater for every taste. You could even make veggie sosaties for the vegetarians joining the festivities.

 

Spareribs are a popular choice, particularly if marinated in a finger-licking delicious marinade. Add a little extra oil to the marinade to prevent burning on the open fire.

Enjoy your day around the braai with friends and family.
