How It’s Made

At Cape Cuts, biltong isn’t just made — it’s crafted. Every step is rooted in tradition, precision, and a love for bold, authentic flavor. Here’s how we turn premium cuts of meat into the perfect snack.

1. Choosing the Finest Cuts

It all starts with the meat. We carefully select only the highest-quality beef, game, or specialty cuts, ensuring tenderness and flavor in every bite. Quality is non-negotiable.

2. Marinating to Perfection

Our signature spice blends bring out the natural taste of the meat. From classic salt-and-coriander to bold chili-infused flavors, each batch is marinated with precision, letting the spices penetrate deep for a rich, unforgettable taste.

3. Air-Drying the Traditional Way

Patience is key. We hang the marinated meat in our controlled drying rooms, allowing it to slowly dry in the traditional South African way. This ensures the perfect texture — tender, flavorful, and full of character.

4. Hand-Cutting & Packaging

Once dried to perfection, our biltong is hand-cut into your preferred sizes and styles. Every batch is inspected to guarantee consistency, freshness, and taste before being carefully packaged for delivery.

5. Delivered Fresh to Your Door

From our kitchen to your hands, we make sure your biltong arrives fresh, ready to enjoy.

At Cape Cuts, biltong isn’t just food — it’s a craft, a tradition, and a taste of South Africa.
