1. What is biltong?
Biltong is a traditional South African dried meat snack made from beef or game, air-dried and seasoned with vinegar, salt, and spices.

2. How is biltong different from jerky?
Biltong is air-dried and cut into thick slices or whole sticks, whereas jerky is cooked at a low temperature and cut into thin strips. Biltong retains more moisture and has a richer, more tender texture compared to jerky, which is often drier and chewier.

3. What types of biltong do you sell?
At Biltong Plus, we offer a variety of biltong to suit different preferences, including:
Traditional beef biltong (sliced or whole sticks)
Chilli biltong for those who enjoy extra spice
