Boerewors is a traditional South African sausage made from beef (and sometimes pork) seasoned with coriander, cloves, nutmeg, and allspice, then formed into a coil and grilled. The term blends Afrikaans words for farmer (‘boer’) and sausage ('wors'), and the dish is central to braai (barbecue) culture. It’s known for its spiced aroma, juicy texture, and distinctive coiled shape.
