Chili Bites
Coming Soon!
Chili Bites take biltong a step further. They start with leaner cuts of beef, which are then sliced into thin strips. This not only speeds up the air-drying process but also gives them their signature crispy-chewy texture. Spiced with chili for a bold, fiery finish, the result is a lean, protein-packed snack that delivers more heat than traditional biltong.
Our biltong is crafted with a simple, high-quality ingredient list:
- 100% USDA beef
- Red Wine Vinegar
- Worcestershire sauce
- Salt
- Spices (Coriander, Pepper)
We pride ourselves on using no artificial flavors, nitrates or nitrites (except those naturally occurring in sea salt), soy, gluten, or MSG.
How should I store biltong?
Unopened bags can be stored at room temperature in a cool, dry place. Once opened, we recommend placing in the refrigerator and consuming within 3-5 days for optimal freshness.
How long does biltong last?
Unopened bags have a shelf life of approximately 6 months from production date (check "best by" date on packaging). Once opened, consume within 3-5 days at room temperature or refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.
What is Biltong?
Biltong is a traditional South African air-dried beef snack that dates back over 400 years. Unlike jerky (which is cooked), biltong is marinated in vinegar and spices, then gently air-dried for 5-7 days. The result is tender, flavorful beef snack high in protein and low in sugar.
Is biltong raw or cooked?
Biltong is cured and air-dried, not raw. The vinegar marinade and controlled air-drying process naturally preserves the meat, making it shelf-stable and safe to eat without cooking.
Is biltong safe to eat?
Yes! Biltong has been safely consumed for over 400 years using traditional curing and air-drying methods. The vinegar and salt naturally eliminate bacteria and preserve the meat while the controlled drying process removes moisture content to lengthen shelf life.
Where is Baya Biltong made?
All of our products are processed and shipped from our USDA-approved facility in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

Yes, biltong is safe for children and makes a great high-protein, low-sugar snack. However, due to its texture, we recommend supervision for younger children (under 5) as with any meat product. Always check with your pediatrician if you have specific dietary concerns.
Our Biltong contains approximately 1g of sugar per serving (from Worcestershire sauce). Our Droëwors and Droëwors Jerky have 0g added sugar. Compare this to traditional jerky, which typically contains 3-8g of sugar per serving.
Our biltong contains: Worcestershire sauce (which contains fish/anchovies)
