How To Do It

The Natal Midlands is absolutely one of my favourite spots in the country, rich in history and there is just so much to do and see. A great stop over for a family weekend.

When travelling up or down to Durban, I always stop over at the Linga Lapa Butchery, just off the N3. Great family-run farmstall which supports all the local farmers, from amazing pork to hundreds of homemade condiments.

Their farm style butcher has a number of amazing items and besides the pork ribs, which is always the first in my basket, I decided to try out their prepackaged, stuffed deboned chicken, wrapped in Bacon.

Wow!! Seriously bleak I only purchased one. And they had a variety of different stuffing’s.

Braai over indirect heat

I decided to fire up the Weber using my Cue the Barbeque Lump Wood Charcoal and prepare for an indirect heat braai. Once the internal Weber temp reached 130degrees I placed my stuffed chicken on the grill. Inserted my Meatermade meat thermometer and set the temp to an internal 74degrees.

Heading onto the glaze I heated up a skillet, placed all the ingredients inside and simmered to a thick liquid glaze. 30minutes into the braai I liberally based the chicken and again 5min prior to reaching desired temperature. Removed from the heat and rested for 5minutes before carving.

Adding some garlic and parmesan crushed roasted potatoes (in duck fat) and a light Asian rainbow slaw, this was a perfect midweek braai for the family.

Ranger Tip

I added the glaze to this amazingly crafted piece of meat, however, not adding the glaze would also have been amazing. A light smoke using Maple Wood shavings would also work out well.
