Biltong is an all natural process of preserving meat that originated in South Africa. This unique air-dried process is centuries old and ensures that our beef retains its full flavor, tenderness, and nutritional integrity. Imagine a cross between dry-aged beef, jerky, and prosciutto.
Our Biltong is made simply from only 6-8 all natural ingredients. After sourcing the best cuts of top-round beef, we begin by trimming the fat off each piece. Then, we dry rub each piece to marinate it in our time tested blend of spices and hang it to dry. After the drying process, each piece is thinly sliced against the grain, creating tender pieces of Biltong.
Kalahari Snacks began after the adventure of a lifetime, when best friends traveled to South Africa and raced 175 miles in an Ironman and Ultramarathon within a week. There we discovered the age-old traditions of crafting and preserving beef with simple ingredients.
Since then, we’ve been rooted in our mission to share these styles and elevate the way people experience food.
