Rich, juicy and full of flavour, it has the distinctive texture and savoury taste that makes boerewors such an essential part of every South African braai. Its thicker casing is ideal for slow, even cooking over the coals, allowing the outside to caramelise beautifully while keeping the centre succulent.

Cooking Guide

Braai or Barbecue

Cook over medium-hot coals for approximately 15–18 minutes, turning gently and regularly until evenly browned and cooked through.

Pan Fry

Cook over a medium heat for approximately 15–18 minutes, turning regularly.

Ensure the thickest part reaches a core temperature of 75°C before serving.

Resting

Allow the boerewors to rest for 3–5 minutes before slicing. This helps retain its natural juices.

• Turn gently with tongs and never pierce the casing.
• Keep the coil intact while cooking where possible.

Braai Master’s Tip 🇿🇦

Boerewors should be cooked patiently over medium-hot coals. Keep the coil whole, turn it carefully and resist the temptation to pierce it—the natural juices are what make traditional boerewors so delicious.
