The seasons may not be swayed by the Gregorian calendar, but this doesn’t change the fact that in less than a month it will officially be spring in the Southern Hemisphere, and autumn (or fall) in the Northern Hemisphere. For us southerners, that means more sun, more beach and more braai. Our fellow safas in the northern parts of the globe aren’t that lucky though as they head off into colder months.

So to cheer you up we’re featuring a lekker South African shop in the US of A.

Shop of the Week – Biltong USA

The history of Biltong USA stretches back for centuries to a time when travelling by ship was the way to go. There, in the 1600’s, the Joubert family set foot for the first time on the most southern tip of Africa. Since their first arrival, they have perfected their secret family recipe and method for curing beef.

Centuries later, the family would once more return to distant shores – settling in the USA and giving their new home a taste of South Africa’s best biltong. Under the watchful eye of founder, Dawid Joubert, a.k.a. The Biltong King, the company has grown from strength to strength to become one of the most-loved biltong suppliers in North America.
