Spit Braai Menu
The Taurus spit braai menu starts with one decision — what turns on the spit: lamb, pork, chicken, lamb with a second meat, or beef. Roast potatoes in garlic and fresh bread rolls come with every one; salads, pap and dessert are added per guest.
Minimum 25 guests · from R116 per guest (lamb R150) · lamb 4–6 hours on coals · 50% non-refundable deposit · free travel within 30 km of N1 City
What the spit braai menu includes
Each spit has its own rate per guest, and what comes alongside it is the same for all of them. The table is the short version; extras, travel and the whole-lamb sizes are on spit braai prices.
| Menu | On the spit | Per guest |
|---|---|---|
| Chicken | Jumbo chicken leg quarters, basted | R116 |
| Pork | Pork, cooked for crackling | R129 |
| Lamb | A-grade whole lamb | R150 |
| Mixed meat | Lamb with pork or chicken | R204 |
| Beef | Beef, cut chosen at booking | R245 |
| Premium wedding | Our wedding reception menu | R272 |
Every line includes roast potatoes in garlic, fresh bread rolls, a gazebo, chafing trays, the chef on the cook, and setup and cleanup.
Salads, sides and dessert
Classic salads — green, potato, coleslaw, beetroot and carrot — and pap and gravy are R15 a guest each, and a premium Greek salad R20. Dessert runs from cupcakes at R20 each and ice cream at R20 a serving to fruit salad at R30. Salads are chosen at booking; how they balance a rich spit lamb is covered on the salads and sides page.
Choosing between lamb and chicken
Whole lamb is the centrepiece most functions book, and it is what the carving station is built around. Chicken, at R116 a guest against lamb’s R150, exists to bring the per-function cost down without dropping the spit itself — the birds still roast in the spitbraai machine and are still carved on site. The two differ mainly in cook time and how much meat lands per guest; both are set out under the meat pages.
How the cook runs on the day
A whole lamb takes 4–6 hours over coals, which is why arrival times are set back from your eating time. We set up, manage the cook and carve when your guests are ready. Space, power and access notes per suburb sit on the areas pages, and the commercial terms — deposit, travel bands, minimum headcount — are on spit braai prices.
Spit braai menu FAQs
Can I change the salads on the spit braai menu?
Yes — salads are chosen when you book, so tell us what you want at that point rather than on the day.
Is there a vegetarian option on the menu?
The published options are built around the spit, so vegetarian requirements are handled per function. Say how many vegetarian guests you have on the quote request and we will price it in.
Do you publish a per-person price for the menu?
Yes. Chicken R116, pork R129, lamb R150, mixed meat R204, beef R245 and the premium wedding package R272 per guest, from 25 guests.
Is there a travel fee?
No, not within 30 km of our N1 City base. 30–50 km adds R500–R800, 50–100 km R1,000–R1,500, and anything further is quoted per job.
