Droëwors — dried sausage — is the one South Africans in Australia hunt for hardest, and the one most likely to disappoint if it is made by someone who has not done it before. Ours is made on site in Maroochydore to a traditional recipe, coiled and air-dried until it firms up properly rather than being rushed.
You can buy droëwors online and have it delivered anywhere in Australia. It is made in small batches and cut to order, so allow 1–5 business days for dispatch, then usually 1–2 business days in an Australia Post Express satchel.

Droëwors — Frequently Asked Questions
- What is droëwors made of?
- It is a traditional South African dried sausage — seasoned beef, hand-filled and air-dried until firm. It uses the same family of spices as biltong (coriander seed, vinegar, salt), which is why the two taste related despite the different format.
- How is droëwors different from cabanossi?
- Droëwors is air-dried and crumbly-firm, with a coriander-forward South African spice profile. Cabanossi is smoked and stays denser and more supple. If you want the traditional South African flavour, start with droëwors.
- How long does delivery take?
- Orders are dispatched within 1–5 business days, because everything is hand-picked out of the drying room and packed fresh rather than pulled off a shelf. Once it ships it travels in an Australia Post Express satchel, which usually lands within 1–2 business days. Tracking is provided on every postal order.
- Do you deliver Australia-wide?
- Yes. We post Australia-wide with Australia Post Express, from the Sunshine Coast to Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Adelaide, Darwin, Hobart and everywhere between. You can also have your order sent to an Australia Post Parcel Locker for 24/7 collection.
- How much is shipping?
- Shipping is free on orders over 2kg (excluding specials). Orders under 2kg are a flat $14.10 anywhere in Australia. Every order includes Australia Post standard insurance up to $100 at no extra cost.
- Will it still be fresh when it arrives?
- That is what the express satchel is for. Nothing is pre-packaged — your order is cut and packed to your specifications on the day it goes out, so it travels fresh rather than sitting in stock. We have been posting dried meats around Australia from Maroochydore since 2016.
- Can I collect in store instead?
- Yes. Click & Collect is available from our Maroochydore shop, and we do local Sunshine Coast drop-offs Monday to Thursday — get in touch to arrange one. Collection is generally not same-day unless it has been prearranged.
