What is Biltong?

Pronounced bil-toNG

Biltong is a traditional South African recipe beef snack that is crafted with premium cuts of grass fed beef. Ayoba Biltong has zero sugar, is high in protein with delicious natural beef flavor, and a texture combination that falls somewhere between jerky and prosciutto. The process is simple, yet delicate. We start with the finest cuts of beef and spice it to perfection using an old family recipe, we then marinate the slab of beef and air dry it for over fourteen days. We then carefully slice the slab into thin, tender bite-size pieces. Just like our South African ancestors, we use no artificial ingredients and only clean, natural spices. It’s perfect for a quick bite, meal replacement, or a post-workout snack. Ayoba Biltong also has 30% more protein than jerky! 

Why Grass Fed?

Grass Fed Beef means the cattle have only been fed grass and other foraged foods like alfalfa. Grain Fed Beef means the cattle might have been grass-fed at some point in it’s life, but it has also had a diet consisting of grains such as corn. Think of it this way, Grass Fed cattle live a life of essentially only eating salads made of grass, whereas Grain Fed cattle will also have sweeter food like corn and oats. Grass Fed cattle also tend to have more access to pastures to graze (this is certainly true of our Grass-Fed cows) which also contributes to the leaner beef.

Is it keto friendly?

Yes, biltong is incredibly keto-friendly! In fact, it is practically a holy grail snack for a ketogenic diet.

Because it is cured and air-dried rather than cooked, it retains high amounts of protein and healthy fats without needing the added sugars or thickeners often found in traditional beef jerky.
