Biltong - 500g - Chilli Bites

This is not the first time I have purchased Biltong and I'm hooked.I have previously had thelarge pieces, slices, bits and Droewors in a variety of sized packs.They are all very good quality, right side of dry and with a great taste and flavour. The price is compatible with the leading suppliers and market, after all, I am quite a consumer, I'm ashamed to say, with the larger sizes giving you that little extra bit of saving. The only downsize is that they are too good. I mean it. I have just had to limit myself to fewer a month and smaller packaging to limit my insatiable appetite.Diane

The price can be slightly steep, but the prices in shops are HORRENDOUS either way.I bought 1KG to last a while, and they did last! Never dried out to where it was like chewing metal and the taste/spice remained for weeks/month or so of being open.

So, where to start?! Love these! I have to say, I have been buying biltong chilli bites in London for over 10 years now and can safely say I have tried them all. Unfortunately for me I discovered that my purveyor of choice (Savanna) had shut their London Bridge store so decided to go online and found these on Amazon. Second purchase later, I can say I have no regrets, these are the best chilli bites you'll get outside Mpumalanga (I would say South Africa but I know someone will be quick to pick up a fight on that... let's save that for another day!).These bites are very chewy - "hard texture" as some of the other reviews say - to begin with but that's where the quality begins to show. As you start to work your mandibles on them, the chilli flavour starts to come through and off course the biltong softens until its one mashed up beefy paradise in your mouth! Also, in my experience the "hardness" is a reliable indicator of quality.. these are dried enough to last a while in your cupboard while retaining quality. I say "last a while" but the truth is your may not be able to! Top quality notch product bringing the genuine taste of Africa to long-starved South Africans in England!*This would have been a 5-star review but guys, you've got to improve your packaging! Just a suggestion broer....

We love this biltong!

Would 100% buy again providing the meat was more moist.

In my opinion these ‘Stokkies’ are just wrong. They are cut too thick, the texture feels like a rapid dehydrated product. Rock hard leather on the outside, with suede insides. No amount of saliva can soft it to a chewable mass. One could persevere but they lack flavour. The initial smell of a newly opened packet smells authentic but it soon disappears. Then you realise that there is little to no flavour when attempting to chew. But perhaps it’s a case of it just being a very different product that what one is used to. Everything can’t be identical.

Great, authentic product. A guilt free snack. Popular with all our family, especially my protein loving son who these were a gift for. Much better than the processed, additive loaded packets from the supermarket.

ive tried standard biltong strips before and jerky and yes there nice but after getting these they do not come close at first i have to be honest its like trying to chew on a stick but as you keep chewing the flavour comes out its bold rich and has to be the best tasting chilly flavour to date i was abit cautious when buying these at first due to some comments but im happy i pushed past it and tried it for myself only draw back is the price and i am not saying there necessarily over charging i understand the beef is not cheap i just wish i could get this product for a little cheaper as it is one of them pros and cons thing pro they are amazing and addictive con is there abit steep but all biltong is the same! if you love biltong and jerky please give this a try even if its just the one time im sure you will not be disappointed i told myself i would only buy one pack as a treat but i had to come back for more!
