The 19th of July is the Biggar Show, this is going to the biggest event yet for Biggar Braai. We look forward to seeing you there. We will be having both biltong and boerie rolls. The 100g (avg) Biltong packs will be a selection of chilli and plain biltong, only a few packs for those keen to try, so limited to 1 per person. As for the Boerie Rolls (Boereworse), I am looking to double what we sold last year. We will also have lovely seletion of drinks in iced water.

We will be located at the Back Left of the grounds, near the food hall, same as last year. So looking forward to seeing you all there.

See the How To page to find out all you need to about Biltong … and how to buy.

I am thrilled to share that the enticing aroma of curing biltong is filling the air! In just 4-5 days, I’ll be delivering a whopping 10kg of delicious chilli biltong to The Olive Tree in Biggar. This is the largest batch I’ve ever crafted in a single go, and I couldn’t be more excited!

Please use the online store, and collect it from The Olive Tree in Biggar the next day.
