Understanding gas braais

Gas braais are becoming increasingly popular in South Africa because of their efficiency and convenience. Here is why they are a great choice for outdoor cooking:

• Temperature control is easily adjustable and maintain the perfect temperature for grilling. 
• Built-in ignition provides instant heat, so you can start cooking right away.
• Incredibly convenient and built to last, offering great value for your money.
• Easy to clean, no more messy ash from using charcoal or wood.

Factors to consider when choosing a gas braai 

1. Size and space requirements: when it comes to choosing a gas braai, size definitely matters! Think about how many people you usually cook for and the space you have available. If for example, you love hosting big braais, a large model with multiple features is a good investment. But if your space is limited, a portable or freestanding braai might be a better fit.
2. Go for the best features and functionality: modern gas braais today come with enhanced features to improve your cooking experience. Make sure that you shop for features that are most important to you. 
3. Prioritise your budget and long term value: the cost of a gas braai upfront can be high depending on the model and design. High-end models often come with a higher price tag but they deliver on better performance, durability, and satisfaction over time.
