Description
BBQ Whole Biltong 500g is whole air-dried beef biltong produced in the United Kingdom by MeatCraft. It is supplied as one or two unsliced pieces totalling 500g, so you can cut it at home to your preferred thickness. Grass-fed beef and a savoury, smoky BBQ seasoning give this whole-piece format its distinctive flavour.
Why Choose BBQ Whole Biltong 500g?
This product is designed for customers who want a traditional whole-biltong experience rather than a packet of ready-cut slices. The 500g total, supplied as one or two unsliced pieces, gives you control over how much to cut and whether each serving is thin, thick or somewhere in between. A single 500g piece is not guaranteed.

Whole Biltong โ Slice It Your Way
Unlike pre-sliced biltong, whole biltong can be cut at home to the customerโs preferred thickness. Thin slices offer a lighter bite, while thicker cuts provide a more substantial chew. You can also vary the thickness for a serving board or cut only the amount you plan to eat.
The whole format is particularly suitable for customers who enjoy preparing biltong themselves and want a more traditional whole-piece presentation.
What Does BBQ Whole Biltong Taste Like?
MeatCraft BBQ Whole Biltong combines savoury beef with smoke, gentle sweetness and a touch of warmth. Dried onion, smoked paprika, garlic, oak-smoked ingredients, tomato and cayenne pepper create the BBQ profile.
This BBQ recipe contains dextrose, oak-smoked sugar, honey and sugar. It is therefore not described as sugar-free.
How MeatCraft Whole Biltong Is Made
MeatCraft seasons the grass-fed beef before air-drying it in a handcrafted, small-batch process. The beef is not supplied as cooked or heat-dried jerky. It remains in its whole format for the customer to slice after delivery.
Each piece may include occasional slight cuts made during quality control.
Whole Biltong vs Sliced Biltong
Whole and sliced biltong offer different forms of the same style of air-dried beef snack. Whole biltong is supplied as one or two unsliced pieces totalling 500g, allowing you to choose the slice thickness yourself. A single 500g piece is not guaranteed. Sliced biltong is already cut and is more convenient for immediate, portable snacking.
If you prefer ready-to-eat portions, choose BBQ Biltong 30g or the larger BBQ Biltong 50g.
Biltong vs Beef Jerky
Biltong and beef jerky are both dried beef products, but they are prepared differently. MeatCraft biltong is seasoned and air-dried rather than cooked or heat-dried. The whole piece also lets customers create their own slices instead of receiving uniformly pre-cut strips.
How to Slice Whole Biltong
- Place the biltong on a clean, stable cutting board.
- Use a clean, sharp knife or biltong slicer.
- Cut across the grain where appropriate.
- Choose thinner slices for a lighter bite or thicker slices for a more substantial chew.
- Cut only the amount you intend to serve.
