We may have 11 different official languages, but all South Africans understand the word and tradition of ‘braai’! Nothing brings South Africans together quite like the unmistakable smell of chops and wors sizzling on a hot fire.
September is not complete without a traditional braai with friends and family. To get you geared up for springtime, we made a shortlist of the best braais on the market.

DÉCOR TIP
Braai sorted? Make each spring get-together unforgettable: Assemble a fire pit, stock a wheelie cart with entertainment essentials — like napkins, cups, and straws — and let your drinks follow you around. Illuminate your patio with paper lanterns and layer them with candlelight to make your outdoor oasis really shine. You’ll be struggling to get everyone home before curfew!
