You will never go back to jerky! Taste the adventure. 8 Ingredients. Hello Biltong, goodby jerky. A century old South African tradition of naturally air drying meat, spiced with ingredients an then thinly sliced. Imagine a tender cross betwen dry-aged beef, jerky, and proscuitto. Air dried. Our Adventure: Amidst our travels in South Africa to race 175 miles in an ironman and ultramarathon within a week, we experienced the diversity of how Biltong was enjoyed - on the trail, a simple delicious snack, or paired with wine at a vineyard. We'll never go back to jerky and neither will you!
