So you are building a brick braai area .... that is for life ! Now you need to fit a stainless steel push in braai to make it look like a million bucks !

Push in Braai as opposed to a build in braai ...!

Our team at Botany Stainless Steel can build you a push in braai frame complete with grid that has 4 height settings, an ash tray to make it easy to clean and use, a fire grate if you want to make larger log fired braai and even a frame surround with closing doors to make it look just like a built in braai.

What we need you to do to start the process is measure the enclosure and maybe take a picture so we can see what you have built.

Then fill in the form on our website or mail the info to the factory to allow them to quote on your push in braai frame etc.

When you receive it, it is a simple as sliding it into the enclosure, setting up the braai and getting started with the braai.

You will get a lead time to manufacture the unit as soon as the team sends out your quote, so you will know exactly when you will receive the braai.

We can also arrange for delivery anywhere in the world if you need that. We work with a team of delivery service agents to make sure that we can get the braai to you exactly where you are.

So who has always wanted a Botany Stainless Steel Ultimate Drum braai ?

2018 Knysna Spring sail past with Knysna Yacht Company

9/11/2018

Despite colder weather the sail past happened ....well they are sailors, what do you expect.

We saw some local special guests on the newly launched Knysna Yacht Company Yacht in the form of the Mayor, Mark Willemse and the past Commodore Albert Lombard onboard as they enjoyed the trip.

So proud of the team at Botany for all their hard work on this boat, the Stainless steel pull pits, boarding gates , solar panel mountings on the rear roof and the rest of the stainless steel looked amazing.

Have steak, ribs and a salad plus some different wraps...now what should we do with all this ?

7/1/2018

We got a cut of beef, sliced it into steaks and then chopped it into cubes of about 30 mm x 30 mm.

We then cut up an onion and some mushrooms into similar sizes and added them to the skewer to form a 240 mm sosatie.

We also got some ribs and Beryl salted them and sprinkled some pepper to taste. We then brushed some olive oil over them and placed them onto the Convector Grill which we had fired up in direct mode but on the left hand side of the braai.

We wanted to keep the other side available to keep the cooked things warm and also to warm the pita and wraps when the meat was done.

We also salted and pepper dusted the ribs lightly and and gave them a light coating of olive oil, and popped them onto the fire.

About 25 minutes later it was time for the bread parts to get a quick warm up and we were ready to eat...... and enjoy a nice cold beer and a glass of wine !

BRAAIBROODJIES ON OUR HOME MADE BREAD.... Mmmmm Lekker !

5/30/2018

Braai Broodjies with a twist:

We sliced up the bread we made previously and added a selection of ingredients like chutney as a base, topped with cheese, then some cold meat and tomato, sliced red and yellow peppers, a bit more cheese and then the top piece of bread.

We then buttered the outside of the sandwich to stop it sticking onto the folding sandwich grid and slid the loop over the handles, and out onto the fire that we set up in semi direct mode ( baskets slightly apart in the centre of the base ) in the Ultimate Convector Grill.

Then we waited about 3 mins and flipped the grid over. By then the bread have started to brown around the edges and we could begin to smell that tell tale toasty smell !! Mmmmm ! Smelt GOOOOD !

We did some without tomato for the fussy ones and some with Gluten Free bread for "The one who may not eat wheat" and they all came out magic.

Then we added a bit of thin wood kindling, got the flames up a bit and popped on some pork steaks and steaks.

I note that there were some things that were not altogether level with this but a fun well fed time was had by all....
