Entries for the 25th<\/sup> annual Championship Boerewors competition are officially open.<\/p>\n

All boerie pioneers, connoisseurs and enthusiasts with an exceptional traditional recipe, plus the skills to make boerewors from scratch, are encouraged to enter before June 2.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Over the past 25 years, the title of Boerewors Champion has been conquered by South Africans from all walks of life, from housewives to butchery managers, and even by a (then) 13-year-old primary school learner.<\/p>\n

The South African Chefs Association (SACA) is a recognised authority on food and will once again take charge of the judging, ensuring that all entries adhere to the guidelines for making truly traditional boerewors.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Entrants will battle it out in six championship rounds held nationwide on July 1 and 8.<\/p>\n

A total of 18 contestants, three winners from each championship round, will then proceed to the Top 18 round in Cape Town on July 22, where the top three recipes will be chosen by a panel of expert judges from SACA.<\/p>\n

The competition really heats up when the top three recipes will be available in Shoprite and Checkers supermarkets for consumers to buy, braai and vote for their favourite between August 18 and September 8.<\/p>\n

By voting, the public ultimately decides who the new boerewors champion is and stands a chance of winning their share of awesome prizes.<\/p>\n

After the votes have been audited, the 2017 Championship Boerewors winner will be revealed on September 13 and the boerewors will be available in stores from September 15, in time for Heritage Day celebrations.<\/p>\n

The 2017 Championship Boerewors grand prize includes a brand new Toyota Hilux 2.8 GD-6 double cab raised body Raider, as well as the honour of having one\u2019s recipe crowned and sold as #SAsNo1.<\/p>\n

There are also wonderful prizes up for grabs for participants from Coca-Cola, Wellington\u2019s and Simba.<\/p>\n

Entry details and more information about the competition can be found on www.championshipboerewors.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n

Shoprite and Checkers are proud of the country\u2019s boerewors tradition and celebrate it by hosting the annual Championship Boerewors competition.<\/p>\n

The supermarket chains\u2019 butcheries are always looking for new recipes and ideas in order to offer consumers the best in quality and variety.<\/p>\n

The Championship Boerewors competition plays a pivotal role in helping the group to achieve this aim.<\/p>\n
