Pink wors

[Bona Botse]

Once upon a time, I bought some pink wors from a butcher for a braai and the wors was super tasty, the best wors I've ever had.

It was in a faraway town though while I was on holiday, and I've never been able to find the same wors in Joburg. Anyone ever had such wors?

It doesn't taste like normal wors, it's much tastier and way more succulent. Smells awesome as well. The best I could find around Joburg is Chakalaka wors but now I was the real thing.

You sure you didn't get roofied and someone fed you 'pink wors'?

Ja, pretty sure it wasn't that.

ROFL

Ja, pretty sure it wasn't that.

just "pretty sure" :wtf: what kind of small towns do you hang out in?

 

[Hemps]

Pink wors, sure you didn't just eat raw wors.

What ingredients would make cooked wors pink?
what seaside town where you in and what store did you buy it from?

maybe it was some exotic animal parts..... like "pink" baboon bum wors.

Sounds to me like it was of a lot of offal and less minced meat. I've eaten it before and it's tasty, but not quite like boerewors. It's also much cheaper...

[aapkop]

It is called "budget wors"

Spit or swallow?

The one thing I will mention is that I have heard that this type of cheap wors contains bone-meal as a bulking agent, which the human body cannot process and is very dangerous to us. Not sure if it's true but I'd prefer to pay that little bit extra for the proper stuff...

I doubt that it's true. There are far cheaper alternatives that would be legal to add to wors...although it may be a fine line if you take into account that humans are non ruminant animals

Had a chat with a reputable butcher about pink wors and he says it depends on who is making it. If done probably it is healthier than your "normal" boerewors. He uses animal intestines for the pink wors casing - no synthetic stuff (or additives).

You probably right and alternatively it could be a wors made from mostly from pork and some herbs.
Pork looks pink in derm.

Just put some viennas on the braai, also pink.

Where from? Since making this thread I've tried 3 butchers, no dice.

Not quite the same. Not the same at all, actually.

Or male dogs' whachamecallit under their bellies when they get excited.
