It\u2019s basically the same concept as a <em>braaibroodjie<\/em>, but instead of using cheese and tomato, you use the curry of your choice, slap it between two thick pieces of white bread and grill it over the fire. Serve with a dollop of homemade raita, made from greek yogurt, chopped mint and cucumber.<\/p>\n<h2>Eastern Cape<\/h2>\n<p>The Transkei\u2019s beaches beg for bonfires, guitar singalongs and crusty travellers crooning along to Jack Johnson. You can also buy local fish here from the fishermen and if you give them R20 extra, get them to gut and clean it as well.<\/p>\n<p>Buccaneers in Cintsa is spread over 8 hectares of wild coastal forest and is located next to the Cintsa beach, the ideal place to get your braai vibes on.

If you want to beat the crowds and see some flowers, head to the West Coast and have a snoek braai.<\/p>\n<p>Tsaarsbank is situated in the West Coast National Park near the Postberg section, south-west of Plankiesbaai and has a great picnic spot, with braai facilities and views of the Atlantic Ocean. Bring a ice bucket, a dry Sauvignon Blanc (OBiKWA\u2019s SB is a bargain at only R28 a bottle) and have a braai that is sort of on the rocks. (Tel: 022 772 2144; Web: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sanparks.org\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sanparks.org<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eat this:<\/strong> Like the Afrikaans saying goes: <em>Snoekbraai en die Weskus gaan saam soos boude<\/em>. All you need is apricot jam, some salt, pepper and lemon juice, and you are good to go.<\/p>\n<h2>Northern Cape<\/h2>\n<p>It\u2019s dusk at the Bitterpan camp in the Kgalagadi. Lions are calling in the distance and towers of cumulus omnibus clouds are gathering in the distance, getting ready for those tempestuous Kalahari thunderstorms. You\u2019re standing on the stoep of your self-catering unit, a cold beer in your hand and a dozen lamb chops are sizzling over the fire. Life does not get better than this.

Joburgers may get exposed to more smog and pollution, but there is one perk; spectacular sunsets. There is no better place to enjoy the pyrotechnics of a Jozi-sunset reflecting off the skyscrapers, than on one of the rooftops of a block of apartments in the inner city. The Ashanti\/Dogon Apartments in Anderson Street in the CBD has one of the best views of the Jozi-skyline, with a swimming pool.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eat this:<\/strong> Nothing says spring like the fatty smell of boerewors grilling on the fire. Impress your inner-city hipster friends with gourmet boeries, which is rivalling the popularity of gourmet burgers. Instead of the normal toppings like tomato or sheba sauce, make a red onion relish, top it with a grated matured cheddar and rocket leaves.<\/p>\n<h2>North West<\/h2>\n<p>How about braaing in a place that was hit by a meteor 2023 million years ago? There are several camping sites and resorts in the Vredefort Dome, the central part of the impact crater where you can braai blissfully and contemplate the chaos the meteorite caused eons ago.<\/p>\n<p>The Suikerbos Resort, just outside of Potchefstroom has self-catering and camping options, with decent braai facilities. (Tel: 018 294-3867).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Eat this:<\/strong> Throw a piece of fillet on the braai and finish it of with a shot of brandy a la steak flambe, to recreate the fire of the meteor impact.<\/p>\n<h2>Free State<\/h2>\n<p>Do you get excited by rolling mountains and imposing sandstone formations? The Golden Gate National Park is located on the foothills of the Maluti\u2019s and the perfect place to spend Braai Day this September. Visitors have a choice of camping, self catering chalets or if you want to glam it up, you can stay in the hotel.

Ask around the bigger towns, like Bethlehem or Clarens, someone is bound to refer you to a butchery that sells some tasty springbok loins or kudu steaks.<\/p>\n<h2>Limpopo<\/h2>\n<p>South Africans experience something spiritual when they are building a fire in the bush. At the Singo Safari Lodge, perched on a cliff overlooking the banks of the Luvuvhu River, you can get in touch with your African roots while braaing up a storm. The units overlook a baobab forest and the bushveld.
