About us

The heart of your braai for more than 40 years

Fire brands for the "just now" braai and the "now now" braai

Just as the term “braai” is unique to South Africa, so too are the expressions “now now” and “just now”. Confusing as they may be to those unfamiliar with the South African lingo, we understand them perfectly. As such, we’ve designed our products for the braai masters who time their braais to perfection.
