Kameeldoring Braai Wood: The King of Namibian Hardwoods for Ultimate Braaiing
Experience the exceptional heat and authentic flavour of Kameeldoring wood, Southern Africa's premier braai fuel. Known as Camelthorn (Vachellia erioloba), this magnificent Namibian hardwood stands unrivalled in quality for braais, fireplaces, and pizza ovens. With its incredible density and bone-dry composition, Kameeldoring delivers a superior cooking and heating experience that simply cannot be matched by ordinary firewood.
The Ultimate Braai Experience with Kameeldoring
Kameeldoring has rightfully earned its title as the "King of the Bushveld" among South African braai enthusiasts. This legendary hardwood boasts an extraordinary density of 936 kg/m³, creating fires that burn hotter and longer than virtually any other wood available. When you light Kameeldoring, you're not just starting a fire—you're unleashing a powerful heat source that transforms ordinary cooking into a culinary adventure.
The secret behind Kameeldoring's exceptional performance lies in Namibia's arid climate. The harsh, dry conditions force these magnificent trees to develop extremely dense wood with minimal moisture content. This natural seasoning process results in firewood that ignites easily, burns with remarkable consistency, and produces the long-lasting, radiant coals that braai masters prize above all else.
Unmatched Heat and Burning Properties
What truly distinguishes Kameeldoring from other braai woods is its exceptional burning characteristics. The wood ignites readily and quickly develops into a robust fire with vivid orange-red flames. As it burns, Kameeldoring transforms into a bed of glowing coals that maintain consistent high temperatures for hours—perfect for everything from quick steaks to slow-cooked potjies.
With its ultra-low moisture content of just 1-2%, Kameeldoring eliminates the frustration of excessive smoke, unpredictable flames, and disappointing heat output that plague lesser woods. This premium hardwood burns clean and steady, allowing you to focus on perfecting your recipes rather than managing your fire.
The Magic of Kameeldoring's Flavour Profile
Beyond its impressive burning properties, Kameeldoring imparts a subtle, distinctive bushveld aroma to food cooked over its flames. This gentle smokey flavour enhances rather than overwhelms, creating a distinct South African braai taste that cannot be replicated with gas or electric grills. The aromatic compounds released during burning complement everything from boerewors to steaks, chops, and seafood, elevating ordinary meals to memorable feasts.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does Kameeldoring compare to other braai woods?
Kameeldoring stands head and shoulders above other braai woods thanks to its exceptional density of 936 kg/m³, which far exceeds that of most alternatives. This density translates to longer burn times, higher heat output, and better coal formation. While woods like Sekelbos also offer good performance, Kameeldoring's superior density makes it the preferred choice for serious braai enthusiasts who demand the best heat retention and cooking performance.
Is Kameeldoring wood suitable for indoor fireplaces and pizza ovens?
Absolutely! Kameeldoring's clean-burning properties and minimal smoke production make it ideal for indoor fireplaces and wood-burning stoves. For pizza ovens, its ability to reach and maintain high temperatures creates the perfect environment for authentic, crispy-based pizzas with that characteristic wood-fired flavour. The low moisture content ensures easy lighting and consistent performance across all these applications.
How much Kameeldoring wood do I need for a typical braai?
For a standard family braai lasting 3-4 hours, approximately 10-20kg of Kameeldoring wood provides sufficient fuel. Thanks to its exceptional density and long-burning properties, you'll need considerably less Kameeldoring than you would with ordinary woods. For larger gatherings or extended cooking sessions, we recommend 20-40kg to ensure you have ample coals throughout your event. Remember that Kameeldoring's efficiency means less wood used overall, making it cost-effective despite its premium nature.
