How to cook Borewors

The perfectly cooked Boerewors is done when the skin is not broken when cooking. Carefully place your Boerewors in a braai grid and cook it at 45 degrees over a coal fire, allowing it to slowly cook the meat. You should see the bubbles of juice in the skin without breaking the skin.
