CTE: The Braai #2

Mike, Jane, Paul, Lee, Aaron & Diana

    As a follow-up to the Braai post from last week, we were able to have another Braai at our house on a beautiful Friday evening (see picture).  Some of our friends from Common Grounds Church (Paul & Lee and Mike & Jane) came over for the braai.  Mike brought his Weber (pronounced Wee-bur) over and was dubbed the Tong-Master (see video below).  We were exposed to one additional type of meat, the SA version of Bratwurst, the Boerewors.  As far as I can tell, there is no standard to the Boerewors, as there are an infinite number of varieties in the grocery stores.  They are typically beef and very long (one continuous sausage) and very tasty, with an assortment of spices, like coriander (very popular in SA), black pepper, garlic, nutmeg, etc...).  They are great on a hotdog bun with tomato sauce (like ketchup) or just plain with salad.  An excellent substitute for the Wisconsin Brat (although I miss them).  Still hoping that we can find some here.
    Lastly, I wanted to add this Youtube video that we watched that night about South African Braai Ettitque.  Enjoy, very funny!
