Step 1
Heat a large cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 2
Coil the boerewors loosely and place it in the pan. Let it sear 3 minutes without moving until the underside browns.
Step 3
Flip the coil and cook 3 minutes more until the casing is charred and the interior is cooked through.
Step 4
Push the sausage to the side. Add onion slices with 1 tbsp oil and a pinch of salt to the empty space.
Step 5
Sauté onions 4 minutes, stirring once halfway, until edges are dark brown and caramelized.
Step 6
Drizzle vinegar over the onions, toss to coat. Serve the boerewors coil topped with charred onions and black pepper.
