Rich and melt-in-the-mouth tender – if your mind doesn’t immediately go to a meaty, braai spread, are you even South African?
King of the braai, Ayabonga Gope, better known as Aya the Cook Dude, introduces his braai favourites with two new braai products from Woolworths: beef brisket with hot honey glaze and a herby lamb espetada.
50 minutes on the braai is all you need to cook the brisket – it's already parcooked and seasoned for the best flavour, tenderness and succulence. A hot honey glaze complements and balances it perfectly.
Aya takes it even further and turns it into birria tacos – and shows you how to make the rich sauce on the braai too!
1. Birria-inspired braaied beef brisket tacos
Rich, tender and succulent, this beef brisket dish is one for the books. The savoury flavour of the meat is balanced with a hot honey glaze, then tucked into birria-inspired tacos with a bold sauce for an inspired new braai favourite.

Then Aya pulls it back with the fresh and versatile marinade of the lamb espetada.
Succulent leg of lamb pieces are marinated in a mix of extra virgin olive oil, white balsamic vinegar, fresh herbs and lemon zest, and take just 30 minutes on the braai. He keeps to a more classic, unassuming serving suggestion: potatoes. But these aren’t the baby potatoes you know…

These lamb espetadas are marinated in extra virgin olive oil, white balsamic vinegar, fresh herbs and lemon zest, which adds freshness to the rich meat. Aya pairs them with super-crispy potatoes, chimichurri and tangy mint yoghurt.
