For Innovative, Yet Practical Outdoor Solutions: CADAC - Outdoor cooking the South African way!

Published: 05 February, 2009

The CADAC Skottel Braai originated in South Africa. When the original ‘Boer' farmers were out in the open field, to prepare their dinner they took an old ploughshare, lit a fire under it and ‘Braai-d' (barbecued) their meat. They had no butter or oil, which wasn't a problem because the grease from the meat prevented burning.

Decades ago, CADAC, then a gas cylinder manufacturer, had the bright idea of mounting an industrially manufactured, round enameled version of a ploughshare atop a pipe on a gas cylinder.

This was the birth of the ‘Skottelskaar Braai' (literally from Afrikaans the ploughshare platter barbecue), which was later shortened to the ‘Skottel Braai'. Now, many years on, a complete range of CADAC products is available, but the basic idea remains the same: preparing a meal in the open air easily, quickly and healthily on appliances which can be dismantled, folded and packed in a carry-case in an instant.

CADAC introduced the Patio range in September 2005, barbecues for the garden, such as the Pro and Neoway charcoal. It quickly became apparent that CADAC was not manufacturing your average barbecue: at the Spoga exhibition in Cologne, Germany, the Neoway was awarded the innovation prize for its patented ash receptacle and its perfect heat distribution.

CADAC has also been setting new standards in patio entertaining with their range of quality gas BBQs.

So whether you are a big entertainer or prefer more intimate dining, CADAC caters for you with a selection of purpose designed BBQ options.

Since then, CADAC's commitment to quality and advanced design technology, means that they constantly strive to make outdoor adventure and home entertaining more enjoyable through innovative thinking, continuous research and new product development.

One of the new products to have been borne of the advanced design technology is the Meridian range of patio gas barbecues. Combining functionality with clean fresh styling, the Meridian will look good on any patio or deck.

CADAC can truly claim to be a fun, reliable, inventive and practical outdoor companion to lovers of the outdoors all over the world.
