Biltong Biltong Biltong is a form of dried, cured meat that originated in South Africa. Various types of meat are used to produce it, ranging from beef and game meats to fillets of meat cut into strips following the grain of the muscle, or flat pieces sliced across the grain. It is related to beef jerky in that they are both spiced, dried meats; however, the typical ingredients, taste and production processes may differ. The word "biltong" is from the Dutch "bil" ("buttock”") and "tong" ("strip" or "tongue"). Meat preservation as a survival technique dates back to ancient times. Indigenous peoples
