Oh God, I've been searching for these sausages but can't find them anywhere. And now thanks to you l can make them myself, Hallelujah! Big hug.

As a South African I have to admit you got this pretty good, personally I use lamb or sheep casing but for SURE not artificial [ tnx for that]after either mixing ingredients or after making will leave in fridge 24 hrs to marinate further before freezing to keep, or just like that hang it up to dry in cool air for droë wors, you did great - let me know if you want to come over for a braai!

You have just been promoted to the rank of Honorary South African..! Great video 👍.

I've watched three of your videos now and I am very impressed with your knowledge of South African food, the Biltong, Droëwors and now Boerewors videos. Boerewors is great with another South African staple food, known locally as Pap (pronounced as "pup") which is a porridge made from maize (corn) with a tomato and onion gravy. I haven't looked to see if you also made other South African favorites such as Melktert, Koeksusters and Vetkoek just to name a few. South Africa has a lot of amazing traditional dishes which varies from population group to population group. If I ever traveled to your country, you would be my number one butcher.

Quite simply the best recipe for boerewors that I have come across and I have been making it for thirty years. So proud to see our South African traditional recipes showcased on this prime channel.
You have to visit South Africa and be treated to a braai.
I hope I can help with the pronunciation - try Boo (like a spook) ruh ( like huh? But with the r = ruh) - vawce or vourse ( like course or coarse ) = boo ruh vourse. Or drew a vourse. Hope this helps but the recipes for the sausages and biltong are great. Well done.

I love the way you lay out your ingredients and explain each one as you add them to the mix. It makes following the recipe much easier to follow and helps me make sense of it all. Great job. I'll have to add this one to my list of things to try

Brother, I've binge watched your biltong/ south African sausage/ summer sausage videos and wow! I'm so thankful for you making these videos. I spent many months in Australia and new Zealand (lots of south africans) where I discovered borovaus and biltong (spelling) and I've been craving it ever since! As a Texan I appreciate the summer sausage videos and will be jumping in the cured meat band wagon asap!!! Thank you brother your videos are amazing so

You have captured the spirit of Boerewors really well. It's one of those things that South Africans who find themselves outside SA miss the most. I know this first hand from my deployments to the DRC and various other places outside SA. There was always a large Boerewors "order" on every re-supply flight! I find lately that I enjoy a slightly smaller diameter Boerewors (about 20mm), and it is also easier to braai to perfection. Although it's not traditional, I sometimes add a touch of ground Cumin to my recipe - not enough to change the character, but it makes an interesting flavour variant...

[mikeleonard]

Love it when you get emotional but I must say this is the only sausage I eat and as a South African I make it myself.

[manuelpereira]

I have tried your recipe. It took me back a few years. WELL DONE. You have captured the spirit of Boerewors really well. It's one of those things that South Africans who find themselves outside SA miss the most. I am in Europe and it helps to taste great food. Great Job.

Howzit! Onion and tomato fried with seasoning salt on French roll and, topped with Mrs. Ball’s. Perfection.

[tharqnimble]

That's a very good boerewors you got going there. Put a section on a hot dog roll with fried onion and tomato and you have what we call a 'boerie roll'. Great stuff Eric!

[MaartinNEW]

I KNEW IT AS SOON AS I COMMENTED ON THE BILTONG VIDEO!! Thank you!! You saying boerewors is amazing. I love hearing Americans talking

[mkultra]

Now take a hotdog bread-roll . . .grill some onions to caramelized perfection, add a long piece of boerewors and make yourself a "boerewors hotdog" or like we call it, a "Boerie Roll" . deeelish !!

[rudisutherland]

I’m from SA and make BOEREWORS all the time. Since I also make a lot of salami, I have been watching your channel a lot. I’m very impressed with your boerewors effort and must comment positively about that. One thing though, we rather use sheep casings. Nevertheless, I think you did a great job 👏

[marilynr]

Thank you! I live in the Midwest and I see some butchers make boerewors. South African food is gaining traction here !

[raymondmather]

Well done you got this so right you made us South Africans very proud, you are one of us now lol

[curious]

Fantastic job. Greetings from South Africa 🇿🇦
