Bledie Lekker Biltong Chunks 8oz

I can't recommend this brand enough. Being on a keto diet, a lot of the jerkies on the market have too much sugar to be worth eating, but I was surprised to find this brand with ~1g per serving. The bag arrived vacuum sealed with everything still intact(other brands leave it loose and then by the time the box gets to you, you're left with a bag of crumbles). The taste is top notch, nothing crazy overboard or artificial tasting but it tastes exactly how you imagine jerky should taste. It seems like they used really good quality meat and didn't need to throw a bunch of extra ingredients/preservatives in while preparing it. The bag itself seemed like more than 8oz but I didn't weigh it. If you're looking for a quality product, that tastes good with minimal processing (and made in the US) this is your ticket. I look forward to ordering more in the future.

I've ordered this now quite a few time. The chunk style is better than the shaved but that may just be my personal preference. I've been to SA several times and have a number of ex-pat friends that make delicious Biltong. EVERY single other company I've tried on the internet selling Biltong isn't even close to an authentic SA product.... but this stuff is pretty darn good. Flavor and texture are spot on. Everything else is dried like jerky and the flavor profile isn't close. I wish the pricing was a little better because I can kill a bag in 1 sitting so it's an expensive treat but everyone loves it.

Item has a good flavor, however is extremely tough. Its so hard that makes it unpleasant to eat!!! I purchased 3 different types (droewors, which i trashed), Biltong (didnt try yet, and I dont think I will, co sidering the other ones) and the chunks, which i trashed too. These purchased was a waste of money, unfortunately.

This was a great company 2 years ago, not sure what they changed but their quality has nose dived. Meat is rancid, flavors are all over the place. When we first bought this brand we loved it, definitely don’t look at past reviews. The last couple batches of droewors made our mouth pasty and bitter, biltong is super chewy and flavors are all over the place; they use heavy star anise to cover up their foul meat . I miss the European Sausage Market in Los Angeles.

Closest in taste and texture to biltong in South Africa after trying multiple brands in the US. So good!

This will be my last purchase of this brand. The chunks were under dried. Tendons so chewy that a dog would have a difficult time eating it. The taste no where near the original biltong I've had hand made from a guy that makes it here from scratch. Tastes exactly like the regular Bledie Lekker I gave bad reviews to a little while ago. I just wanted to give them another chance. This is just corned beef with very little seasoning and under dried with the texture of eating a raw piece of goat. Lol. Ayoba yo is 10 times better. Edit Feb 22, 2020: It's a bit or miss. I needed biltong real quick since I ran out of Ayoba yo so I just clicked on anything in my past orders and took a Gamble and ordered bleddie chunks. Wow. This one was ONO! Still chewy with lots of tendons but it was tasty and not like my previous ones that was bland and chewy corned beef. I will give them the benefit of the doubt and order 2 more. I will let you know if it was a fluke.

Buying meat through the mail is weird, but surprisingly delicious! I am a repeat customer and I'm working my way through the inventory. The difference between this and the sliced biltong is that the sliced is easier on the teeth and this hunky, chunky biltong takes some chewing... but if you know your biltong, that's part of the fun. Great flavor, quality product, well packaged.

This is the closest thing I have found to real South African biltong. It's disappointing that there are so many biltong brands but few will offer thick cut, which is the supreme way to enjoy, in my personal opinion. I would LOVE if they would offer this thick cut biltong in peri peri flavor!
