The Easter Holiday is here, and you know what that means: family time, long weekends, and of course… a proper Easter braai.
In South Africa, Easter means different things to different people. Some are heading to church, others are heading to the beach, but let’s be honest, most of us are craving to sit around a fire with friends and family. The Easter long weekend is the perfect excuse to gather your people, fire up some wood, and braai like it’s your national duty (because, let’s face it, it kinda is).
So grab those tjoppies, squeeze a lemon, and get ready to share your favourite Easter stories, true or not, it doesn’t matter, as long as there’s flames flickering.
Every Easter Braai Needs a Donkey
Planning an Easter braai this long weekend? Then you already know you’re going to need a Donkey Long Tong. With it, you'll be standing tall at the fire, tongs in hand, flipping tjops with the confidence of a braai master and the smug silence of someone who knows when the boerie is done perfectly.
And let’s not forget the Donkey Tong. This isn’t just another tool, it’s your meat-wielding tong. When that one uncle comes over (you know the one, the honorary Braai Advisor General) and starts offering “tips,” you simply raise your tong, flip your steak with flair, and let the sizzling silence do the talking. It’s a time to let the backseat braai uncle have his moment.
Long Weekends Mean Camping Braais
Easter and camping go together like boerie and rolls, or wind and forgetting your tent pegs. If you’re escaping to the great outdoors, or even just to the bottom of the garden with a tent and a cooler box, you need the Jack Sack.
This isn’t just any bag. The Jack Sack is your leather-clad adventure partner. Rugged, reliable, and handsome as anything. It’s built to take on the bush, the backyard, or even the braai area behind the BnB. And yes, it’s packed with everything you need to dominate any Easter holiday fire situation:
- Donkey Long Tong
- Donkey Tong
- Blower
- Paddle
- And a little surprise in the pocket (we could tell you, but that would spoil the fun)
Whether you’re deep in the wild or glamping, the Jack Sack’s got your back.
What You Need This Easter Holiday Weekend
Let’s break it down. To make this Easter holiday one for the books, you’re going to need:
- Quality braai wood
- Solid tools (Get your Donkeys ready)
- Meat (lots of it)
- A cold something in your hand
- And the attitude of someone who knows their fire isn’t going out unless they say so!
- Bonus points if you toss in a hot cross bun on the grid
So wherever you're headed this Easter (backyard, bush, or beyond), we hope your long weekend is filled with big flavours, bigger flames, and a whole lot of Donkeys.
