Where do you reckon the best sausages are?
New World Te Rapa's Angus beef sausages have just been crowned supreme champions in a national competition - an honour shared with a beef and mushroom sausage from Westmere Butchery in Auckland.
Where's your top sausage spot?
The Te Rapa win was in the Devro Great New Zealand Sausage Competition.
"You have nothing to hide behind when you make a beef sausage. It has to be quality," butcher Chris Nicol said.
"You can take shortcuts when you make sausages, but if you use quality ingredients and put the time and effort into it and if you hand mix it and use the right meat to fat ratio you're going to come up with a good product."
From rugged campsite to 7.5ha resort
Grant Kilby has always loved camping. His mum was director of health at the YMCA, and he would attend YMCA camps in the school holidays. “I think it was mandatory that I was there,” he jokes.
He went on camping holidays with his parents, and later, took his own kids.
“Camping’s been in my blood.”
Poll: When do you shop the sales?
