South African Style Biltong

Biltong is a traditional South African snack made by air-drying beef seasoned with vinegar, salt, and often spices like coriander and black pepper.

Biltong is made by marinating beef in vinegar and spices, then air-drying it for several days.

Biltong jerky tastes like savory and slightly tangy beef, but more intense than beef jerky. Traditional biltong also features warm black pepper and floral coriander.

Biltong is cured and air-dried, rather than cooked, making it a ready-to-eat snack. It’s safe to eat because vinegar, salt, and ventilation stop bacteria from growing while enhancing flavor.
