Why Does South African Food Taste Different?

Let's be real, South African food has a vibe that’s hard to match. It’s all about bold flavours, hearty meals, and that unique blend of spices that you can't find just anywhere. From the richness of biltong to the comforting spice of boerewors, it's like a party in your mouth, and everyone's invited. The secret? It’s all in the mix of cultural influences – a dash of Dutch, a sprinkle of Malay, a touch of Indian, all mixed into African traditions. The result? Dishes that are as diverse as they are delicious.

The Lowdown on Biltong and Biltong Beef Jerky

Now, let’s talk about the star of the show – biltong and its close cousin, biltong beef jerky. This isn’t your average snack; it’s a South African treasure. Biltong is air-dried, spiced meat, similar to jerky, but oh-so-much more flavourful.

Here at African Vibe, we take our biltong seriously. Our recipe is straight from the heart of South Africa, using only the best cuts of meat and a blend of traditional spices that’ll transport your taste buds straight to your old home town. Whether you’re after something lean and mean or a bit of fatty heaven, we’ve got the perfect biltong bite for you.

South African Biltong

Biltong is a form of salted and dried, cured beef jerky that originates from South Africa. We use only the highest quality Australian beef to produce the finest biltong. Made from 100% pure Australian beef using our traditional South African spice blend. With over 20 years experience as a maker of South African food, you can guarantee African Vibe has the best biltong in Sydney! Be inspired! Join the vibe!

Biltong is South Africa's national snack, and it's easy to see why. Who wouldn't want a deliciously healthy snack that has 50% protein and 3 % fat?

In 1836, the local pioneers in South Africa embarked on what became known as "the great trek" – a migration by oxen wagon and horseback – to get away from the British. They crossed deserts, mountains, and braved wild animals until they got to an area called the Transvaal, where they discovered gold and decided to settle. To sustain themselves, they killed and ate wild animals. They would then eat as much of the fresh meat as possible and cured the rest using salt and spices. They called it biltong. It was rich in protein, light to carry, kept well and could be reconstituted in stews.

Biltong is a delicacy that’s now catching on with a growing band of Aussie followers, and is making steady progress into the Aussie larder. African Vibe makes biltong from prime Australian beef and kangaroo, although it can also be made with venison or ostrich. The meat is traditionally cut from the hind leg or shoulder, is marinated in herbs and spices (especially coriander) and hung in drying rooms to cure for five to seven days. African Vibe uses an old family recipe to develop that unique taste.
