South Africans around the world still refer to their outdoor cooking sessions as a braai.
It is a quintessential South African term and we like to think that we have the edge on cooking up a feast on coals or gas – over our Australian and American counterparts.
“During lockdown everyone should be braaiing up a storm as there is nothing like that smoky ambience to put people in a great mood.

“Braaiing on an open fire has been the most widely practised food preparation method for countless centuries,” said Chantelle du Plessis, public relations officer for Hirsch’s Meadowdale.
“We live in a time where food has become so much more than mere sustenance.
“It is a social activity that engages every one of our senses and just gives us a chance to sit back and enjoy something truly spectacular.”
