~Make Your OWN!!~
- Buy a nice cut of meat and cut into one-inch thick strips cutting with the grain. I'm using eye of round in this picture, but I also like london broil and top round.
- Dip each slice into apple cider vinegar and pat dry. This helps to cure and flavor the meat. Add a couple splashes of worchestire to mix up the flavoring.
- Coat each piece of meat liberally with the biltong spice recipe used below. Then place in the fridge for 12-24 hrs. The longer you leave it in the fridge the saltier it will be.
- Put an equal ratio of apple cider vinegar and warm water in a bowl, rinse off most of the spice and pat dry. Again, you can add some worchestire to the ratio for flavor. This step will give your biltong that classic dark shine!
- Hang the biltong in your box making sure that the pieces of meat do not touch each other. If mould appears, you can cut it out with a knife and treat the area with vinegar. In about 7 days you can enjoy some lekker biltong!
Very nice photography, very nice looking cuts of meat too, all leading to severe mouth watering this side of the screen. Giving your spice mix a go this weekend
