Six braai menus, from R116 a head

Lamb, pork, chicken or beef

A spit braai is the South African name for a spit roast. The meat turns on a rod over the heat until it is cooked through. At your function, Spitbraai Cape carves it at the buffet.

The lamb spit is a flat R150 per person. Pork costs R129 per person and chicken R116, the two lowest rates on the card. Beef is R245 per person. Read more about lamb on the spit and the other meats.
