What is Braai Charcoal ?

Which charcoal is best for braai?

Briquettes

Briquettes: this is the best, if not only, option to use in a kettle braai because briquettes are an efficient fuel form and a rather exact science (they’re great for getting the right heat at the desired time).

Is it better to braai with wood or charcoal?

If you are creating coals to braai on, we advise that you stick to hardwoods. Hardwoods (sekelbos, rooikraans, mopane, and camelthorn/kameeldoring) are ideal because they retain heat well and burn for longer, which means you’re able to cook a lot more in one go.

Does lump charcoal burn longer?

A great choice for cooking steak caveman style directly over the coals. Lump charcoal burns faster and hotter than briquettes so you do need to be careful with your temperature control.
