4+ ways to gooi

From the coals to the sushi mat — Spit Sous brings the same bright, smoky tang to everything it touches.

On Steak

Sprinkle over chops, boerie and steak straight off the coals. That butcher's-vinegar bite cuts the fat and wakes the smoke right up.

On Chips

The chip-shop classic — a good splash over hot slap chips. Sharp, salty and moreish, exactly how vinegar on chips should be.

Over Sushi

A few drops where soy can't reach — sharp, clean and a little wild. The unexpected hit that turns a roll into a talking point.

On the Ribs

Mop it on low-and-slow, or cut through sticky basted ribs with a sharp splash. Tang against the sweet — the way ribs were meant to be eaten.

Born for beef

When the coals are right and the steak's resting, this is the bottle that earns its place at the table.

Spit Sous was mixed by a butcher, for the meat he knew best. That sharp vinegar bite cuts clean through the fat, lifts the char, and wakes the smoke right back up — the difference between a good steak and one folk talk about all week.

Gooi it over a thick rump straight off the grid, a rack of beef short ribs, or coils of boerie spitting on the coals. One sprinkle, and the meat does the rest.

Our Story

Inspired by the butcher's braai.

It started with Alex & Hester Eckard and their spit-braai catering, Country Ox, out in Parys. Alex built his own mobile ox-braai — the only one of its kind — and could slow-turn a whole lamb or beast on the spit for a feast. Over those coals he brushed the meat with a special sous of his own.

"Refined for the modern table, faithful to the fire it was born on."

That sous became Spit Sous — a butchers vinegar. Three generations on, it's the same family and the same recipe — now bottled for your own table, carrying the instruction it always has — Gooi sous!

Bottled for the table or poured by the 5 litre, it's the same butcher's tang throughout — the big jug simply priced for the trade.
