Steers Monkey Gland, a South African classic

A rich, tangy, fruity tomato sauce

Steers Monkey Gland Sauce is one of South Africa's best loved sauces, famous as much for its name as its flavour. It is a thick, tangy tomato based sauce with a fruity sweetness and a savoury, slightly spiced depth, the result of tomato, fruit chutney, Worcester sauce and spices coming together.

Sweet and savoury at once

It is a natural partner for steak, where it became a restaurant favourite, and it works beautifully on burgers, chops, sausages and any braai meat. Use it as a basting sauce on the grill or pour it over the meat at the table.

No monkey involved, just great flavour

The unusual name dates back to a 1920s South African restaurant story and has stuck ever since. We ship this nostalgic classic across Canada so you can enjoy a true taste of home.
