We’re talking braai broodjies - golden, crispy, cheesy perfection - but here’s the real question:

What’s your SECRET ingredient?

Are you team chutney, cream cheese, a little chilli, extra onion… or do you have something completely unexpected that takes yours to the next level? 😏

We might just discover the ultimate braai broodjie combo.

A little butter. A lot of happiness. 💛

We’ve got the cuts… and the best sides 🤭 now what are you serving with them? 🔥🥩

This week’s favourites - lamb chops and rump steak - deserve a proper side, so we’re putting four braai classics up for the vote:

A: Garlic bread
B: Fresh salad
C: Braai broodjies
D: Pap & Sous

Which one gets your vote? 👇
Or are you the type that needs all four on the table? 😏

Every great cut deserves the right occasion. 🥩🔥

This week’s favourites - lamb chops and rump steak - can go two very different ways:

A: A lekker braai gathering with good food, good company and plenty of fire.
B: A romantic dinner night with a beautifully plated meal and someone special to celebrate.

So which one are you choosing - A or B? 👇

It’s time to fire up the braai. 🔥🥩

You asked, we listened. 🥩🔥

Last week we asked: What’s your favourite cut? And the votes were too close to call - lamb chops and rump steak came out on top!

So we’re kicking off our new CUT OF THE WEEK series with a double feature. 👏

Lamb chops bring that tender, flavour-packed goodness we all love, while rump steak delivers bold beefy flavour and a proper braai favourite.

Over the next few posts, we’ll be sharing how to cook each cut perfectly, the best occasions to serve them, and what to pair them with.

Two favourites. One delicious week. Stay tuned. 👀🔥

Blockman’s Meats - Your Local Butcher.

Drop your favourite cut in the comments below 👇 and tell us how you like to cook it.

At Blockman’s Meats, we’re all about bringing you quality cuts for every braai, family meal and feast.
