1. Bring Out the Best in Braai Chicken

Braai chicken is a South African staple, and the secret to getting it just right is the seasoning. Whether you’re spatchcocking, skewering, or slow-roasting over coals, Robertsons Chicken Spice delivers balanced flavour and colour that works across the board.

Want to dial up the heat? Try our Knorr Professional Mozambican Peri-Peri Marinade & Basting – it’s bold, punchy, and perfect for both traditional and Portuguese-style braai chicken.

For rich, caramelised meats with locked in flavour, reach for the Robertsons Steak & Chops Spice – a go-to for braai beef, braai pork chops, and of course, lamb chops. For even bolder results, marinate beforehand with Knorr Professional Barbecue Marinade to infuse smoky-sweet depth.

These combos give your meat that signature crust while keeping it juicy inside – the ultimate crowd-pleaser.

3. Everyday Flavour with a Dash of Aromat

Knorr Aromat Original is a braai hero in its own right. 

Sprinkle it over meat just before serving or mix into marinades to give your dishes that familiar umami kick. Whether it’s a pork braai, crayfish braai, or yellowtail braai, a little goes a long way.

It’s a secret weapon for chefs who want consistency, depth, and a flavour finish that keeps customers coming back.

4. Don’t Forget the Roosterkoek and Sides

While this article is all about the meat, a proper braai wouldn’t be complete without the classics on the side: think buttery roosterkoek, chakalaka, and grilled mielies. 

(We’ve got you covered in our next article, which is focused entirely on South African braai side dishes.)
