Help Us Share Biltong with America

Donation protected
An opportunity we cannot let it go away. As me and my brother have stayed a while now in San Antonio, Texas. We have noticed for the love of all Americans have for one thing! FOOD! They love all kinds of food, snacks and drinks. Not to mention their Jerky! As a South African we still make our own type of Jerky called Biltong. Personally it wins hands down. But we are here to prove it. Feel free to ask for a sample of the great taste as we want to share our culture with the rest of America! Providing a satisfying yet healthy snack for your family.

Biltong is a type of dried meat that originated in Southern Africa. It was first made by the indigenous people of the region, who used it as a way to preserve meat. The word “biltong” comes from the Dutch words “bil” and “tong,” which mean “rump” and “strip” respectively.

Early Origins

Biltong was first created by the indigenous people of South Africa over 400 years ago. They preserved their meat by curing it with salt and hanging it to dry. This method allowed them to store meat for extended periods, making it a vital source of nutrition during times of scarcity.

Evolution of Biltong

Biltong as it is today evolved from the dried meat carried by the wagon-travelling Voortrekkers, who needed stocks of durable food as they migrated from the Cape Colony north and north-eastward (away from British rule) into the interior of Southern Africa during the Great Trek.

Global Appeal

Biltong is a 400-year-old health food snack with South African roots. African heritage with a global appeal, biltong is made from the finest cuts of meat and cured with natural spices. This is the best meat snack you can eat. The Key ingredients to biltong is typically made with black pepper, coriander, salt, and vinegar, which give it its distinctive flavor and texture.

Biltong has a rich history that spans centuries, from its origins in Southern Africa to its global popularity today. Its unique flavor and texture have made it a beloved snack around the world.
