What is the difference between Biltong and Beef Jerky?

Biltong is dry cured and not cooked and there are no preservatives. Dry cure means that the Biltong has a soft texture when you chew it. Jerky is saturated with preservatives and then cooked at 160F for 6 hours. You may as well eat a piece of cardboard with some flavor in it. The other big difference is our spices. Our authentic South African spices have 22 components and this gives our Biltong a unique and distinctive taste to that of Beef Jerky.
