For centuries mankind has endeavored to preserve meat. Seafarers,
centuries ago, pickled meat in large wooden caskets and devoured this meat during the months they
were at sea.

African folklore has it that migrating African tribesmen, herding their stock, would place strips of venison under the saddles on their horses as the chaffing would tenderize the meat and the sweat of the animals would spice it! This must be when vegetarians were born!!
Biltong, as we know this delicacy today, is a rich inheritance from pioneering South African forefathers who sun dried meat during their trek across the African Subcontinent.
The basic spicing is a dramatic blend of vinegar, salt, sugar, coriander and other spices. These spices were in abundance in the then Cape Colony in South Africa, as the French Huguenots produced wine and vinegar from their grape crops and the Cape Colony was the halfway stop for seafarers plying the spice routes of the East. Various brine recipes and marinades were created and handed down for generations!
Today BILTONG and DRY WORS, a massive industry in South Africa, is proving to be popular in the overseas markets as well.
