The search is on for SA’s number one boerewors
The top three recipes will be available in-store for consumers to buy
SHOPRITE and Checkers’ Championship Boerewors competition is back.
Entries for the 2016 Championship Boerewors competition is open and will close on June 2.
After the introduction of a new competition structure last year, where the public voted for their favourite recipe in a Top 3 showdown, the competition is now even more exciting and challenging than ever before.
Entrants will get down to serious business to battle it out in six champion rounds taking place on July 2 and 9 in major city centres nationwide. Eighteen contestants (three from each of these events) will be selected to compete in the final round in Cape Town on July 23 where the nation’s top three recipes will be chosen.
The top three recipes will be available in-store for consumers to buy, braai and vote for their favourite from August 19 until September 9. The votes will be audited and the winner of the 2016 Championship Boerewors competition will be revealed on September 15.
Anyone with an exceptional traditional boerewors recipe and the skills to make their boerewors from scratch is encouraged to enter. Fantastic prizes are once again on offer, with SA’s Boerewors Champion standing in line to win the grand prize of a brand-new Toyota Hilux 2.8 GD-6 Double Cab Raised Body Raider, as well as the honour of having their recipe crowned and sold as SA’s Best Boerewors. There are also great prizes up for grabs for participants from Coca-Cola, All Gold and Simba.
The South African Chefs Association (SACA), a recognised authority on food in South Africa, will take charge of the judging processes and will be making sure that all entries adhere to the guidelines for making truly traditional boerewors.
