Calling all boerewors masters: Enter the 2025 Championship Boerewors competition
South Africa's 2025 Boerewors Champion will walk away with the grand prize of a brand-new Toyota Fortuner 2.4 GD-6 RB AT valued at R705 800, and the bragging rights of having their winning recipe sold at Shoprite and Checkers stores nationwide.
By showcasing the nation's most authentic and delicious traditional recipes, made with the best quality ingredients, SA's No. 1 Championship Boerewors has firmly established itself as a customer-favourite over the past three decades.
Over the last year alone, Shoprite and Checkers butcheries sold close to 6 million kilograms (6 000 tonnes) of Championship Boerewors – enough to make 56 million boerewors rolls.
'This competition is a celebration of South Africa, not only the country's rich food heritage, but also the culture we've built spending time with friends and family around braai fires,' said 2024 Championship Boerewors competition winner, Ruard Briel.

'Winning the title of Boerewors Champion, and becoming part of this legacy, was such an honour. All the contestants were treated like royalty, and the experience was unforgettable, which is why I will be entering again.'
Participants are expected to demonstrate skill and mastery of the full boerewors crafting process – from blending the perfect mix of herbs and spices, to processing the meat and producing perfectly stuffed and cooked boerewors.
All entries will be assessed by a panel of culinary experts from the South African Chefs Association (SACA). Submitted recipes must comply with traditional boerewors making guidelines and will be rigorously vetted before moving to the next round.
Once validated, the judges will shortlist 30 recipes before narrowing them down to the top 10 finalists. The finalists take part in a special live cook-off event where a panel of judges will crown one deserving contestant as the Championship Boerewors winner for 2025.
The winner and runners up receive the following:
• First prize: A new Toyota Fortuner 2.4 GD-6 RB AT and R20 000 in cash
• Second prize: R50 000 in cash
• Third prize: R30 000 in cash

Arion Carter's leadership with Tennessee football detailed
No. 18 Tennessee kicked off fall training camp on July 30. Rankings reflect the US LBM Coaches Poll. Following the Vols' third practice on Aug. 2, linebackers coach William Inge discussed Arion Carter entering his third season at Tennessee in 2025. 'I think that what you see, he's been probably consistent,' Inge said. 'It's still been the same scenario. When you come here in the morning, he'll be the first one here, you come here at night, he'll be the last one leaving, and now, I think from a leadership standpoint, what he's done has really turned into the player-led organization part of the program where he's making sure the rest of the guys are doing some of those same things. 'It's not just him dealing with the linebackers, but him also dealing with the secondary, the d-line, the o-line and just his communication that he has around the guys on the team. That's what you want when you take the next step in leadership. He's also doing the same thing. We talk all the time where, in order for you to be a dominant linebacker or dominant player that is known, it is about leadership and production, and he is producing on the field as well.' The 6-foot-1, 235-pound junior linebacker appeared in 21 games for the Vols from 2023-24. Carter totaled 85 tackles, including 37 solo and 48 assists, 7.5 tackles for a loss, one interception and eight pass deflections.
