Explore our biltong collection to try authentic culinary mastery.

Why Choose Our Biltong?
Apart from yummy, fulfilling taste, here are a few other reasons to choose the biltong we carry.
Real Lean Beef, Premium Flavors
The biltong here is made with real lean beef, from pasture-raised American Black Angus at Righteous Felon to 100% grass-fed and finished beef at Brooklyn Biltong, and seasoned with coriander, vinegar, and black pepper for rich flavors. The meat is slowly air-dried, for up to two weeks at Stryve, for an unmistakable texture, both soft and chewy in every bite.
Protein and Carbs: Check the Label
These products are air-dried rather than cooked, which is why the slices come out dense and lean. Protein and carb counts vary by brand and flavor, so check the Nutrition Facts panel on each bag rather than assuming.
Simple Ingredients, Check the Sugar
This unique jerky uses vinegar and spices rather than sugary marinades, making it a popular option for jerky lovers watching sugar. Stryve's sliced flavors and Brooklyn Biltong list zero sugar, while Vacadillos adds sugar and, in Chipotle Honey, granulated honey, so check the label. It's also rarely smoked: Stryve's Hickory is the one flavor here that carries hickory smoke, and the rest skip smoke entirely.
Naturally Short Ingredient Lists
Here, you'll get beef, vinegar, salt, and spice, and not much else: Brooklyn Biltong's Grass Fed Classic lists three ingredients, and Righteous Felon sweetens with monk fruit rather than sugar. The Nutrition Facts panel on each bag tells you exactly what you're getting, so read it before you buy.
Portable and Shelf-Stable Convenience
The air-drying and traditional preparation methods allow for a bag that travels well, whether you're going for a day hike or a week-long road trip. Just open a bag of biltong, and enjoy. Unopened, store it in a cool, dry place and use it by the best-by date on the bag. Once opened, reseal it, refrigerate it, and eat it within 3 days.
Gourmet and Artisanal Quality
Try biltong as your charcuterie centerpiece, and it will be right at home next to your favorite cheeses and olives. Its intensely savory flavor profile will go wonderfully with sharp cheddar, figs, and almonds for an exquisite snack.
Curated Top Biltong Brands
We feature trusted brands like Stryve, Righteous Felon, Brooklyn Biltong, and Vacadillos that offer a variety of biltong flavors and styles to cater to diverse preferences. We don't make any of it ourselves; we find the best brands and put them in one place. Original, spicy, and grass-fed beef are just a few of the options these companies have brought to many loyal customers.
Flavors and Ingredients
We offer a carefully curated collection of biltong with incredible flavors and quality ingredients. Check them out below, and prepare to be amazed.
Chili
Try this cayenne sensation with an addictive heat for an unforgettable experience. Brooklyn Biltong's Chili pairs cayenne with black pepper, coriander, and rosemary on grass-fed beef, while Righteous Felon's Ancho Villa stacks ancho, chipotle, cayenne, habanero, and paprika for a well-rounded, satisfying taste. Want that heat on classic jerky too? See our chili beef jerky.
Spicy Cayenne
For maximum spice, you need a blast of spicy cayenne chili and cracked black peppercorns, perfect for true heat seekers. This biltong jerky is seriously addictive and extra tender, made with just a short list of natural ingredients. Vacadillos seasons its carne seca with cayenne, citrus, and garlic, and Stryve's Spicy Pepper adds chili pepper to black and white pepper for a stinging bite without the blowout.
Garlic
Righteous Felon's Darth Garlic delivers a bold, sharp burst of black garlic, rosemary, and cracked black pepper for a deep, clean flavor, sweetened only with monk fruit. Brooklyn Biltong's Garlic keeps it to grass-fed beef, apple cider vinegar, salt, garlic powder, and rosemary. This biltong is juicy and tender, but still keeps vampires away. Prefer it on traditional jerky? Browse our garlic beef jerky.
Habanero
Vacadillos Beef Bites are fun, melt-in-your-mouth morsels of air-dried steak loaded with scorching habanero heat. Try them to experience a fiery, unforgettable snack inspired by traditional carne seca, or go for Righteous Felon's Ancho Villa, which folds habanero into its pepper blend. More heat lives in our habanero beef jerky.
Original Flavor
We also offer original, zero-sugar flavors from brands like Stryve and Brooklyn Biltong. You can even go as minimalist as you want and get biltong made with just three ingredients: grass-fed beef, apple cider vinegar, and salt. For the classic-jerky take on a no-frills flavor, see our original beef jerky.
Specialty Options
Our specialty options include biltong made with distinctive peppers, like ancho, tender brisket cuts, dill and black garlic, Hatch green chile steak bites, and lemon beef. And if you want to try other types of meat, check out our chicken, salmon, and bacon jerky, and you'll be sure to find a snack you love.
Nutrition: Check the Label
The biltong we carry uses short ingredient lists and vinegar-and-spice seasoning instead of sauce-heavy marinades for that savory taste of beef. Sugar, sodium, and protein differ from bag to bag, so read the Nutrition Facts panel. If sodium is the concern, our low-sodium jerky collection is the better place to start.

Keto and Low-Carb Diets
For those on these diets, biltong might just be the ideal snack or even ingredient in a dish. It often contains zero sugar, but not always, so check the label and start with our keto & low-carb jerky collection, where we've gathered the flavors that fit.
More Biltong Flavors
Vacadillos' carne seca has close cousins in our carne seca beef jerky collection, and fans of a firmer bite should look at dry beef jerky. Browse the full beef jerky range for everything we carry, or go plant-based with vegan jerky.
