Ever noticed how some brands call them pork sausages while others say bangers? It’s not just a name thing, it’s about what’s inside. At Frey’s, we take pride in calling our products sausages, because they’re made the way true sausages should be: with real meat, real flavour, and nothing to hide.
What’s the difference?
The word banger comes from the old days, when sausages were packed with cereals and water to bulk them up. When cooked, they often burst or “banged” in the pan. Today, the name still fits, because many “bangers” contain more filler than actual meat.
A Frey’s pork sausage is the complete opposite. Our sausages are made with 80% real pork, blended with a simple mix of high-quality ingredients sourced both locally and directly from Europe. Rooted in classic German sausage-making tradition and perfected for the South African palate, every bite delivers that rich, juicy flavour we’ve become known for: full of real taste and never filler.
When you cook a Frey’s sausage, you can see and smell the difference. The meat caramelises beautifully, the aroma fills your kitchen, and that first bite? Pure satisfaction.
Real ingredients, real taste
Ever notice how a real sausage sounds different when it hits the pan? It doesn’t hiss and spit, it sizzles, slowly releasing that unmistakable aroma that makes everyone wander into the kitchen asking, “What’s cooking?” That’s the Frey’s difference: the kind of sausage that calls people to the table before you even shout “breakfast’s ready.”
At Frey’s, we don’t believe in cutting corners. You won’t find processed cheese or imitation flavouring in our sausages, only real cheese, natural herbs, and spices chosen for balance, not bulk. You can taste the difference in every bite, it’s meaty, satisfying and distinctly Frey’s.
Tradition you can taste
Once you’ve tried a true pork sausage, you’ll understand why we don’t call ours bangers. The taste, texture and quality speak for themselves.
At Frey’s, we’ve spent generations perfecting the sausage, combining traditional craftsmanship with real ingredients to deliver the kind of flavour that makes you stop mid-bite and smile.
