Boerewors Pizza

I have to say, one of the nicest things about my job is when brands want me to test out their produce. Not only do I get to be creative with these ingredients, it also kind of fills up the freezer. Win!

And today I would like to share a recipe I did with Checkers Championship Boerewors. Voted South Africa’s number one boerewors, these sausages have seen many a braai, and has been made into many a ‘boerieroll’ throughout South Africa.

Boerewors are not only meant as an accompaniment to the steak and chop.  It also does not always have to be made into a boerewors roll. As a matter of fact, I think this is my new favorite pizza combination…

…and I wanted a Boerewors Pizza. Period.

How to make Pizza

I used a simple pizza dough recipe, spread a thick layer of All Gold tomato sauce with dried oregano and topped it with pan fried boerewors, caramelized onion, mozzarella and fresh basil. As South African as it gets!
