Tips For a Successful Braai

You would think that having a braai is reasonably self-explanatory but there are still do’s and don’ts with regards to a braai. When you cook food in the kitchen you will find certain ways you need to cook and the same goes for a braai.

Do’s

Prior to deciding to consider most things whenever you buy meat always check just how much fat it has. If your meat has a lot of fat you’ll have to spend some time cutting it off and for a more obvious reason you want meat with a little fat, not fat with a little meat. If you spend hours cutting fat off you might have to reschedule eating time which may upset a lot of hungry stomachs. The reason you ought to cut just as much meat off is to get a lot more flavor to the meat and also it is much healthier.

Another tips is to use marinade as meat by itself can taste quite boring. You can judge for yourself how much marinade you wan to use and there are many flavors from which you can choose. Washing your hands before you decide to handle the meat is very important because you might spread germs and bacteria loves meat for their breeding grounds. It is also recommended that you leave the marinade on the meat for a few minutes to an hour (in the fridge) so the marinade is able to absorb.

Make sure that you use wood and charcoal but not too much at first. You don’t want to produce an excessive amount of heat at first. Monitoring the temperature can also be important as meat over flames can simply get burnt. The key goal of a braai is, slow cooking the meat as this will prevent the food from burning therefore you shouldn’t place the meat over a fire but rather over the hot goals.

It is necessary that you clean the braai/grill before you start cooking, since it is assumed that many grills are left outside, you at risk of consuming plenty of bacteria. Grease could be very bad for your food and safety. You should make sure that the chemicals you use to clean the braai wont be harmful if you had to consume a little of it.

What Not to do

Do not use lighter fluid to begin the fire, your food might end up tasting like chemicals and this is also potentially hazardous. There have also been a lot of uncontrollable fires due to lighting a fire with this fluid. In addition to that you should not use petrol/gas to light a fire as this is extremely dangerous and again your food might have a different/bad taste. It is a lot better to use fire lighters, they are still poisonous but it’s best not to add the meat before they have completely burnt up.

Another important factor is where the braai is situated. Do not place the braai under a tree with low hanging branches and make sure you aren’t close to where kids are playing where they could run into it. Scout the region before you place it. Make sure you have enough space around the braai area as smoke may also be damaging to children.

Braais are fun also it should produce tasty food. It’s enjoyable and quite a few people enjoy the taste of a good braai. Make sure you are equipped and you follow a few steps if you would like a prosperous braai.
