Biltong

Biltong is a traditional South African preserved meat product made by curing and air-drying slices of beef or other meats. Unlike jerky, which is often dehydrated and sometimes smoked, biltong is seasoned with vinegar, salt, spices, and then hung to dry in a controlled environment. The process preserves the meat, creating a chewy texture with rich, savory flavors. Biltong is enjoyed as a protein snack, valued for its natural flavors, minimal processing, and nutritional benefits, making it both a tasty and healthy alternative to other dried meats.
