Biltong is a traditional South African dried meat snack made by air-drying seasoned beef. Unlike jerky, biltong is never baked or smoked — it's cured with vinegar and spices then slowly air-dried, resulting in a tender, flavourful snack that's naturally high in protein.

The main difference is in the preparation. Biltong is air-dried using a vinegar cure and whole cuts of meat, giving it a softer, more tender texture. Jerky is typically marinated and then heat-dried or smoked, resulting in a chewier, slightly sweeter product. Both are delicious — it just comes down to personal preference!

Drywors (pronounced "dry-vors") is a traditional South African dried sausage. Made from seasoned beef and spices, it's air-dried to create a firm, flavourful snack stick. It's a staple in South African culture and a firm favourite at The Biltong Bar.

Biltong chips are thinly sliced biltong that's been dried a little longer for a crispier texture. They have all the same great flavour as our classic biltong but with a satisfying crunch — perfect for snacking straight from the bag.
