Bad times for braai lovers in South Africa

[RaptorSA]

Just get rid of braaibroodjies already.

In Europe they created a special meat cutting machine for edgy, opinionated folks like yourself.
It's called a "guillotine".

Braais are also much cheaper if there are fewer mouths to feed.
You might want to keep that in mind in these here parts.

I always make enough so I can have one or two for breakfast too, because nothing slaps harder than a braai broodjie curing my hungover the next morning.

Extra points when you figure out you should use the air fryer to heat it up so it's crispy again.

 

[Defiler]

So you'd opt for the sandwich before the meat?

Yup. I usually cook up a plate of braai broodjies or bacon wrapped chili poppers as a starter.

And I thought it bad enough my [SA] wife eating her veggies first... then her potatoes... and only then her steak.

I'd probably lose it if she had a snackwich as a starter.

You cant have a braai without a braaibroodjie!

Yes, yes you can

That is standard Afrikaans etiquette. First salad, then veggies, then starch potato/rice, then meat.
Its basically you save the best for last.

If you taste a braaibroojie, and it doesnt taste like angel pee-pee, then you know it aint a braaibroodjie. Nothing to do with sexual orientation at all.

Either you can or you cant!

So clearly, stating it again, you are mingle with the wrong crowd my dear

Have had it many times and yes pee it does taste like.

@TofuMofu your feedback is required

Never have I ever braai'd a carrot.

She's definitely not Afrikaans (as my kids' poor grades in that subject will attest to).

If snackwiches are that good then wouldn't they come at the end?

Growing up braaibroojies would always be done first, mostly for the kids and that one bachelor uncle that's already gone through a bottle of Klippies by himself, and it's only 5pm.

Always a great snack for the next day or as a midnight snack.

You know, serious braaibroodjies with proper boerewors! (Thats the thing)

suspect @epah knows more than us about "proper boerewors" ...

dafuq? when the coals are at their hottest?

unless you're one of them rich folks that make a small batch of coals just for bread and then a whole new batch for the meat?!?

us regular poor folk need to braai everything on one batch of coals, you start with whatever can take the most heat (e.g. steak) and work your way to things that can't handle so much heat (e.g. braaibroodjies)

the kids were never a consideration, they're only there to flip the grid when dad gets too drunk / lazy to do it himself

Yeah that's the other issue with braais, come over for a braai, arrive at 12 eat at 9pm... no wonder you need sandwiches.

To be fair people are getting more stupid by the second.

Retard can't move the braai away from all the open windows.

retard also thoughtfully put a flammable piece of newspaper under those flames ...

to be fair though, that's not a braai, I see charcoal

must be a regional thing

in my Afrikaans upbringing it was meat first, then meat, then whatever meat is still left

veggies and starch were optional extras

Uhm, sorry to correct you here, but you forgot the meat, meat and salad (chicken)

indeed, indeed, meat, meat, chicken, goat food and starch are optional, pudding is crackling from the meat

Rich, hah. Wish, we the kids had to go into the Botswana bush and go fetch dry wood. There was one oil drum braai for the adults and a hole in the ground with rocks in a circle for the kids.

This happened way too much.

Bruh, it's easy, just lift the grid.

f-that noise, only pansies place a grid at varying levels, real men braai low and fast, just turn more often if its gonna burn!
