Peanut Butter & Bacon Mielies (Corn) - A @dtube exclusive: A BraaiBoy TV Recipe

First Up: If you're viewing this from a Facebook or Twitter link, and you haven't joined Steemit yet, then please do so now... and subscribe to my @dtube channel (

If I've ever braaied mielies for you, then you've definitely tried my GO TO "mieliles on the braai recipe"... A mate of mine introduced me to the recipe a few years back, and you know what they say: If it ain't broke, then don't fix it! So for years, I haven't!

In short: The recipe is: mix Marmite, butter and melt it, add a dash or 5 of Aromat. Soak your mielies in the mix for a few minutes. Braai the mielies as per usual and keep basting during the process. Excess sauce can be drizzled on the mielies after they've been braaied.

Anyway, so I decided to break the "if it ain't broke..." rule, and try a new recipe that another mate of mine swears by. It includes bacon... so that was probably what swayed me :-)

Cover in PB & Butter Mix

... and let it soak for a few minutes.

Wrap your mielie in bacon

... and secure with a toothpick.

Because the mielies are pre-cooked, you only need to braai until the bacon starts to crisp.

I'm still in 2 minds about this one though... It's definitely "interesting" (yes, that's what most people will tell you when they're not entirely sure how to tell you they don't really love the food you just made them.... hmmmmmm)... and I will definitely be trying it again... even if it's just to shake things up now and again.

Tip: Sprinkle a little salt on your mielies after as well... I assumed the salt from the bacon (and butter) would be enough saltiness, but it could do with a tiny bit extra.

Liked the recipe... or maybe the recipe was crap but you like the video? If so, then please give it an UpVote and maybe even a ReSteem too. Holler at me in the comments and share it with your friends.
Thought it was crap? Then let me know in the comments below as well... please don't downvote though, 'cos that would just be douchey! :P
