This exciting series brings the beloved South African tradition of braai to life, mixed in with a bit of competition, travel, and, of course, mouth-watering food.
For the first time ever, Ultimate Braai Master will be featured on BBC Studios channel portfolio, marking a proud addition to BBC Lifestyle’s growing local content lineup, which includes other fan favourites such as Come Dine with Me: South Africa and Listing Cape Town.

Hosted by veteran presenter, producer, cook and traveller, Justin Bonello, Ultimate Braai Master hosts multiple two-person teams – comprising a Braai Buddy and the Braai Master – who then battle it out in a series of outdoor cooking challenges across some of SA’s most stunning locations, including the Drakensberg Mountains and Wavecrest Hotel & Spa in the Wild Coast.
Season 5’s competitors hail from across the country, representing provinces such as Kwa-Zulu Natal, Limpopo, Gauteng, and the Western Cape.
And judging these teams are two culinary powerhouses – celebrity chefs Pete Goffe-Wood and Benny Masekwameng. Each week, the judges will assess the teams’ cooking, and the weakest teams of the week will face the risk of elimination – all in a bid to win the coveted title of Ultimate Braai Master.
The winning team will also take home an impressive prize package worth over R2 million, including a brand-new Suzuki Grand Vitara, R200 000 in Game vouchers, and R400 000 in cash.
