What you're getting

Whole-muscle beef biltong. Protein-packed. Simple whole-food ingredients: beef, vinegar, salt and a traditional five-spice coriander cure — no MSG, no artificial additives; full ingredients on the bag. Air-dried, never cooked — cured beef that's tender like steak, unlike jerky's chew. No gluten-containing ingredients — coeliacs should still check the label — and protein-packed whole-muscle beef. Lekker, as we say back home.

Where to buy biltong: what to look for

Wherever you buy biltong — from us or anyone — check four things: a clean ingredient list (beef, vinegar, salt, spice — nothing you can't pronounce), zero sugar, a USDA-inspected facility, and freshness. The USDA bit matters more than most people realize — imported South African biltong is actually banned, so every legal bag in America is made here (the full story on why biltong is "illegal"). Biltong keeps drying with age, so moisture content is texture: the closer to the batch, the better the slice. Most supermarket dried meats fail at least two of those. New to biltong? Start here.

Why buy from a local instead of a shelf?

Traditional biltong is best fresh — ordering direct means it reaches you close to the batch, from someone you can actually reach. It's the difference between real biltong and a warehouse bag. Slice it thin for the couch, pile it on a charcuterie board, and watch it disappear first. Comparing brands first? Our honest US top-10 is here.

Never run out

The 4oz is a starter, the 8oz is a household bag, and the 16oz is for a house that shares. A monthly subscription takes 10% off every order. Feeding a team instead? Office delivery starts with a free tasting box. Droëwors — biltong's air-dried sausage cousin — is coming to the lineup, so the biltong and droëwors variety pack is on its way.

South African, and biltong is literally half my surname — I grew up on it. Everything here follows my family's recipe from the Cape winelands: if it wouldn't pass there, it doesn't get bagged.
