Notes

Charred Bacon & Cheese Braaibroodjie

Crispy bacon, loads of melted cheese, tomato and onion with the deep roasted-chilli flavour of Charred Under Fire Sauce and a touch of BlixSam Dop โ€™n Tjop. Proper braaibroodjie comfort food with some fire.

Ingredients

Makes 4 braaibroodjies
  • 8 slices white bread
  • Butter, for the outside
  • 250 g streaky bacon
  • 150 g cheddar cheese, grated
  • 100 g mozzarella, grated
  • 2 tomatoes, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, thinly sliced
  • 4โ€“6 tablespoons Charred Under Fire Roasted Chilli Sauce
  • BlixSam Dop โ€™n Tjop Braai Spice, to taste

Method

  1. Cook the bacon until golden and crispy. Drain on paper towel and roughly chop.
  2. Lightly butter the outside of each slice of bread.
  3. Place four slices butter-side down.
  4. Mix the cheddar and mozzarella and add a generous layer of cheese.
  5. Top with tomato, onion and crispy bacon.
  6. Spoon Charred Under Fire Roasted Chilli Sauce generously over the bacon.
  7. Sprinkle lightly with Dop โ€™n Tjop Braai Spice.
  8. Add another layer of cheese and close with the remaining bread, butter-side facing out.
  9. Place in a braai grid and braai slowly over medium coals, turning regularly until the bread is beautifully golden and crispy and the cheese is gooey and melted.
  10. Rest for 1 minute, slice diagonally and serve hot.
Samโ€™s Tip: Get the bacon properly crispy before it goes into the braaibroodjie. The crunch against the melted cheddar and mozzarella, with that roasted chilli sauce, makes all the difference.
