This is the way we impress a guest at the biltong household. They’re generally unimpressed by our lack of furniture so we try to distract them with a big biltong platter.
Our most recent guest barely ate a thing and left the rest behind for us to feed on. Our day started with the fresh food platter in our wild and relaxing backyard.
We’ve just hung another huge amount of juicy steaks. Our systems are getting more and more efficient and so is the consistency of our biltong.
Our time in the kitchen (and all of our time working on Barbell Biltong for that matter) has been about implementing systems to get tasks done efficiently.
Luke and I have been dabbling with preserved foods for some years now. Our baby of course being Barbell Biltong. But we also love our probiotics (what we’ve nicknamed rotten cupboard food), we ferment Sauerkraut, kefir yogurt and brew a pretty dope kombucha.
Cold water immersion sucks, but paradoxically I've come to love the experience. I thought about explaining this but instead I champion you to try it yourself.
I usually opt for cold showers, but here I demonstrate my patented wheelie bin technique* *DO NOT try this at home, this stunt was performed by trained professionals.
After a good days hike, Barbell Biltong is what I crave the most. Mixing this with some almonds, cashews and goji berries was an orgasmic flavour sensation. - Luke
My hands are my feet? ... Or at least they were once not so different, back when our ancestors crawled on all fours. I often find that I over look the meaning of these simple facts and am then astounded by their implications once fully considered.
We’ve discovered a revolutionary new way to store biltong: keeping it in a glass jar.
Biltong will last a seriously long time like this. Air that passes through the paper towel will slowly dry the biltong out further, making it invulnerable to the elements.
We had a ball last weekend at the Capital Region Farmers Market. It’s always a lot of fun meeting Canberrans from all walks of life who choose to shop there.
Make it a goal to get out of bed early this Saturday and get your groceries done.
