Surprised
Flavor Name: Lemon Pepper, Size: 2 Ounce (Pack of 2)
It is very tasty. Would have score a five star except for the few pieces of indigestible fat added in the bag.

Amazing Beef Biltong with Some Delicious Fat!
If you enjoy beef biltong that is easy to eat and has a little delicious fat on it too, this biltong will make you very happy. It is pretty plain just with salt and does not have the typical coriander flavor. I did not find it overly salty and the slices keep well in the freezer or in a bag they supply with your order. It is a paper bag you are supposed to keep the leftovers in in the refrigerator. You can also freeze extra biltong for later and thaw it out in the refrigerator as I'm doing now. I have tried a lot of biltong in my lifetime and used to eat it in Africa on a regular basis. Now that I'm back in America I keep trying different biltong companies to see who is the best. This is in my top 10 of biltong experiences. You get a lot for your money and it is well worth ordering! ~The Rebecca Review

The best biltong
I had to write a review because this biltong is actually incredible. It’s the best biltong I’ve ever had. The bags contain large, tender pieces. The fat-to-protein ratio is perfect, and the seasoning is delicious. They even provide a paper bag to keep it fresh, and you can freeze anything you can’t eat within three days. I highly recommend this brand. I won’t be buying any other biltong after this.

Excellent flavor, tenderness, texture and quality
Wow, blown away by the excellent flavor, tenderness, texture and quality. I have never eaten Biltong before but it came up in Chatgpt when I asked about a great protein source to carry in my motorcycle tank bag that tastes better and has less UPFs and sugar than most beef jerky. The answer it gave me was Biltong. I gave this a try and love it.
