South Africans are known for their love of barbecue (braai in Afrikaans). South African dishes such as boerewors, sosatie and mielies are grilled on the braai. Meats such as steak, chicken, pork chops, mutton and lamb chops are also barbecued. On September 24, South Africa celebrates multicultural Heritage Day, also known as National Braai Day. Patron of this day is Archbishop Desmond Tutu.
