Ingredients
2 kg of chuck beef (fat and gristle removed)
750 de-boned thick rib of pork
200 g of pork fat (spek)
1 tablespoon ground coriander
2 tablespoons salt
a good pinch of nutmeg
½ cup vinegar
About 90g of pork casings (ask your butcher for some or ask him where you can buy it)
(Optional: You can experiment by adding additional ingredients. For a lovely curry flavour add
a tablespoon of curry powder to the above recipe. For a great garlic flavour add finely crushed
and chopped garlic and for a sharper taste add more vinegar).
Do not overcook sausage. About 12-15 minutes over slow coals should do well. Serve with
other BBQ dishes like Mealie Bread.
Meat Selection
Meat selection is all important when attempting to make a top quality boerewors which will
deep the customers coming back for more.
• Where possible try to always use fresh meat rather than trimmings which have been
frozen and then thawed out. The freezing process cause free moisture in meat to form
ice crystals which in turn break the protein chains with the muscle. When the meat is
then thawed, these crystals melt ant the water leaches out of the meat.
• When the raw boerewors is manufactured, there will be a reduction in the water binding
potential of the meat and this will result in a final cooked product which is dry and
crumbly.
• Before mincing the trimmings in preparation for making boerewors, ensure that there
are no bone chips, cartilage and excess connective tissue.
• Always ensure that meat is cold when you mince it (0 - 3°C). There will always be a
temperature gain during the mincing process.
Equipment
Always make sure that equipment is clean and sterile. Dirty equipment is one of the major
reasons for reduced shelf life in fresh products. Mincer knives and plates should always be as
sharp as possible to ensure that a clean cut is made on meat with minimal temperature
increase.
