Wood from De Houtboeren – straight from South Africa

At Braaihoutshop, we collaborate with De Houtboeren in South Africa. This is the company specializing in supplying authentic African braai wood. They select, cut, and dry the wood species that have been used for braais in South Africa for generations.

Why The Houtboeren?

The Houtboeren are known for their craftsmanship and passion for quality wood. Their wood is:

• Sustainably harvested with respect for nature.
• Carefully dried under the African sun.
• Carefully selected for hardness and fire quality.

This way you are assured of wood that not only burns well, but also gives you that real South African braai feeling.
