Planning a Spit Braai at a Wedding Venue
- The venue confirms in writing that a charcoal fire is allowed at the chosen spot.
- Inside the City of Cape Town, section 16 of the City of Cape Town Community Fire Safety By-law bars any open fire within five metres of a tent, its stakes or its guy ropes.
- The chef arrives four to seven hours before you eat, depending on the meat, so the coals are going well before the guests.
- The spit stands downwind of the tent so smoke does not drift over the tables.
- Serving time is set around the speeches; carved meat waits hot in chafing trays.
- Large receptions add serving staff at R850 each.
