[Mericet]

I almost forgot about this! Here is the recipe. It is taken from an old Afrikaans recipe book that is very common in households in South Africa (well, Afrikaans ones at least)

10 lb beef
2 lb pork
3 lb bacon (I use fresh side)
1 tbsp pepper
3 tbsp salt
2 tbsp fine ground coriander
1 tbsp ground cloves
1 ¾ tbsp fine ground allspice
1 ½ tsp nutmeg
2/3 cup white vinegar

Method:
Grind beef and pork and mix together.
Cut bacon into small cubes and add to beef/pork mixture.
Mix all dry spices well, sprinkle over meat mixture.
Thoroughly work spices into meat, add vinegar, work through and let stand for 1 hour.
Mix before stuffing into clean casings.
Grill on fire or in pan.

A few notes: I am sure you can used cured bacon as well but that will change the taste obviously. My butcher supplies me the meat (beef and pork) that he uses when making ground beef/pork. I prefer to grind this myself as I like a slightly coarser ground than what you find in store bought ground meat. I have however used pre-ground meat before (although it is easy to stuff the mix in too tightly then). I have halved the recipe before without any problems. Of course, the best way to enjoy it is grilled on a charcoal or wood fire. To me the coriander and cloves is what gives this it's distinctive taste and is probably used in most variations of this you can find in SA.
