Biltong or Jerky?
Biltong or Jerky?
Traditionally, Biltong is a South African method of drying meat. Biltong is dried as a full piece of topside beef before sliced. You will find that Biltong is softer in the middle as the product dried from the outside in, leaving the centre moist and juicy. In comparison, Jerky is sliced into thin slabs before the drying process begins. This results in a chewier, harder product which is completely dry unlike biltong. All Jerky is marinated in soy sauce resulting in a sweeter taste.
