Weskus Annas

It's game on as Ultimate Braai Master returns for a fourth season (the second on e.tv) in which 13 teams will compete in the world's toughest outdoor cooking competition to become the Ultimate Braai Master.

Set in various destinations around South Africa, the teams will travel nationwide to compete in a series of challenges where they will show off their braai skills.

Each team consists of two people, one braai master and their respective braai buddy, who showcase their braai skills in order to win the ultimate prize.

The winning team will walk away with R500,000 in cash, a Suzuki Sx4 All Grip, a trip to the World Food Championships in Florida, USA and the title of "Ultimate Braai Master".

The teams are challenged to survive weekly tasks set out by internationally renowned judges Chef Bertus Basson and Chef Petrus Madutlela. Justin Bonello, founder and producer of Cooked in Africa Films, returns as the show host.

The Host
 
Justin Bonello

Cook, traveler and lover of life, Justin Bonello is a veteran presenter and producer, as well as  founder of one of South Africa's leading film production companies, Cooked in Africa Films. Justin has combined his three favourite things – Southern Africa, food and friends – into his daily work.

The Judges

Bertus Basson

Bertus started cooking at the age of 17, spent three years in London where he worked at the Michelin restaurant, Chez Bruce, in Wandsworth. He describes his work at this restaurant as the moment that changed his life because this is where he honed in on his culinary skills. He believes the experience provided him with real-life training that couldn't be learned in a college.

On his return to South Africa he opened a few restaurants, a vending business, makes wine and is involved with several good causes in the Stellenbosch area. He was named the Game Changer by Men's Health magazine on February 2014.

Petrus Madutlela

Petrus Madutlela was born in Motholung just outside Brits, North West Province and started out as a general worker at a local club. The Head Chef noticed his enthusiastic personality and gave him an opportunity to create top-class food across the world.

The scholarship recipient has represented South Africa on many occasions and has worked for varied establishments such as Le Quartier Francais, Avianto, Sun International and the Aqua Restaurant at the Sibaya Casino.
