Biltong

[Cois]

Will never again buy Crown Spices Chili bite mix. Tried the mix from King Meat deli and there is no comparison at all to be made.

The crown spice has a base smell of Curry and it does not work for me at all.

The king Meat Deli spice came out to about the same price.

 

Have one batch that I will hang in the morning, then will give the biltong mix from Kings Meat a go.

I dont mind the chili mix as a base to start with. Add a few extra spices to it and some peri peri and it comes out pretty lekker.

Got another 5kg silverside to start a new batch of Biltong today.

Most of the 5kg will be chili bytes and the rest pure biltong.

Nice! just watch the humidity (PS I have no idea what your weather is like atm). I found that on the West Coast the big pieces like that to go moldy before they dry

Yeah, im worried about the thickness of them. Maybe i need to put the light in to help dry it quicker.

I've never made biltong in constant humid conditions , but adding just a pinch of bicarb to your mix may help. It's what we do if we have wet weather up here.
