Spitbraais caters spit braai functions across the Atlantic Seaboard. Compare any spit braai Atlantic Seaboard quote on three things: how far the caterer travels to reach you, whether your site is exposed to the south-easter, and whether a trailer can get near enough to where people eat. All three change by region, and across the Atlantic Seaboard they work out as follows.
Spit braai Atlantic Seaboard: travel, wind and access
| Distance from our base | 25-35 km — Mostly within 30 km, so usually no travel fee; the far side of Hout Bay can fall in the 30-50 km band (R500-R800). |
|---|---|
| Wind exposure | The most wind-exposed ground in the metro. A summer south-easter here will strip heat off an open spit, so we bring a windbreak to every Atlantic Seaboard booking. |
| Typical venue | Apartment roof terraces, villas and small walled gardens. |
| Access | The hardest region we cover. Loading zones, lifts, narrow lanes and body-corporate rules on open flame - we check the flame rule before quoting, not after. |
| Areas covered | the City Bowl, Green Point, Sea Point, Camps Bay, Clifton and Hout Bay |
How we work in the Atlantic Seaboard
The chef arrives four to seven hours before you plan to eat, depending on the meat, and sites the spit with the wind in mind — in the Atlantic Seaboard that means the most wind-exposed ground in the metro. A whole lamb goes on at 600 g a head and takes four to six hours, so the fire is lit well before anyone arrives. The chef stays with it for the whole cook, carves, serves, then packs down and takes everything away.
