Boerewors Style Sausages - Traditional South African Farm House Sausages

My friend told me about these sausages and I found a local butcher from south Africa who made them- there meaty and robust and quite peppery.
I came up with this recipe for them that works well with Yellow rice and spicy chutney.

Preparation time: 1 hour +   Quantity: Makes 8 - 10 portions   Cooking time: 10 - 15 minutes

250g minced pork
250g minced beef

1 teaspoon allspice

15 twists black pepper

Method
