Mastering the Carnivore Diet at South African Braai Spots

South Africa's braai culture offers a carnivore's paradise – sizzling meats, open flames, and bold flavors. But navigating menus while staying true to your zero-carb lifestyle can be tricky. Sugary marinades, hidden ingredients, and language barriers might derail your diet. That's where mm food transforms your braai experience.

Why Braai and Carnivore Are Natural Allies

Braai focuses squarely on quality meats: succulent boerewors (sausage), tender sosaties (kebabs), and juicy steaks. Traditional preparation aligns perfectly with carnivore principles when done right. Yet pitfalls lurk in:

• Secret Sugars in marinades and sauces
• Grain-Filled Sausages hiding unwanted carbs
• Non-Carnivore Sides sneaking onto your plate
