Braai Christmas Feast

πŸ“– About This Tradition

South Africans celebrate Christmas during summer with a traditional braai (barbecue). Instead of turkey and ham, families gather for outdoor grilling of meats, boerewors (sausage), and fresh seafood. The day often includes swimming, beach trips, and outdoor games. Carol services are held on Christmas Eve under warm summer skies.
