Did we have fun? The most!

There was dancing, braaing, laughter and the usual shenanigans you can always expect from your faves.

But in case you missed out on ANY part of the fun, we've rounded up all of the best moments (which was pretty much every moment) so that you can still feel like a part of the family.

Here are some of the braailights! Get it? Like highlights but for a braai? Anyway...

First, we have to show some appreciation for these looks!

The Braai Masters:

Some of your other ECR faves also stopped by:

Leti from Phoenix played #StaceyNormansBigMusicChallege and she had a very special assistant helping her out on this #HeritageDay edition of the quiz:

#TrafficJamWithJSbu saw us wanting to dance, dance and 'Dance Some More' and that's exactly what everyone did.

We then snacked on some delicious treats and enjoyed the most incredible braai spread you could imagine thanks to Cocktails and Caviar:

And you can't forget the drinks!

Speaking of drinks, Stacey and J Sbu went into a head-to-head Gin-Off where the two of them tried to channel their inner mixologist and create drinks that would be judged by Cocktails and Caviar's very own Conner.

But there could only be one winner...

J Sbu then took it one step further and attempted to master Flair Bartending. You might be wondering: "What is Flair Bartending?" 

Well, it's when a bartender does all those fancy tricks like throwing bottles and setting things on fire! 

Luckily J Sbu was kept away from any open flames and no one was hurt in the making of this video:

Finally, the night ended off with a fire set by DJ Brendon M as he provided us with another super fun #ECRMix!

You can find all his booking details right here.

And with that, the best braai came to an end!

We had a blast celebrating #HeritageDay with you and we hope you feel the same. Who knows, maybe this can be an annual thing? (Especially if we can get past this pandemic and have you join us in real life!)

Have a great long weekend and stay safe.
