In this hands-on demonstration, we'll teach you the basics of making your own biltong sticks - how to select your meat, cut, marinade, season, cure, and store it.
We offer vegans a surprisingly good alternative and bet you'll become addicted, too!
Find out how an English 'Soutie' like me married an Afrikaans 'Boeremeisie' and how we combine our distinct and different cultures.
Learn about the origin of the Afrikaans language (the only European language born in Africa!) We'll teach you a few expressions over a strong 'moerkoffie' served in a tin mug along with a piece of Soutie's homemade Karringmelkbeskuit.
We create a fun, relaxed atmosphere with Boeremusiek (folk music) and some catchy Afrikaans songs to showcase our rainbow nation's authentic, warmhearted hospitality.
Be prepared for tall tales, snippets of history, and a few classic Afrikaans sayings to spice up your conversations during this unique cultural experience.

Experience SA's favourite protein delicacy at our biltong-making workshop! Join us in our cosy "voorkamer" (lounge) for a hands-on demonstration to make your own biltong. We'll share fun facts and tips - from selecting the right cut of meat to how to prepare and cure it. Biltong is a South African dried meat snack that is different from American jerky. It is made with beef, game meat, or ostrich, and is seasoned with a blend of spices that is unique to South Africa. We also offer a vegan option that is surprisingly good! Learn about SA's history and rainbow nation culture. We'll tell you about the Khoisan hunter-gatherers who invented biltong, the pioneers of the Great Trek who added the spice, and the English "Soutie" who married an Afrikaans "Boeremeisie." We'll also create a fun, relaxed atmosphere with Boeremusiek (folk music) and some catchy Afrikaans songs. We'll teach you a few local expressions while you taste some of Soutie's homemade Karringmelkbeskuit. Guests will get a sample of biltong sticks to take home. There will also be an opportunity to buy more snacks and mementoes. This is a unique cultural experience that you won't want to miss! Book your spot today!

5.00Lovely experience with lovely people. They have a lovely home where you’ll work with both of them to sample snacks and make biltong. It was interactive and fun and you learn a lot about the South African culture in a not so typical way. They also send you home with a little to go package. Lovely couple - would recommend to anyone.
Great Experience

5.00Lindie and Greg were very warm and welcoming. My husband and I really enjoyed the experienc, we learnt a lot about biltong in a fun way, we did biltong tasting and made our own biltong, the meat was so fresh that we actually tasted it raw after marinading it (optional). I highly recommend this experience as biltong is one of the most important foods in South Africa.
Fantastic Personal Experience

5.00Greg and Lindi provide a friendly environment to learn about the history and making of billtong. It's in their home, which is nice and intimate. They provide some good tastings and you get the chnace to prepare some biltong sticks. They provide some of the recipes to you during and they have since sent me the photos and another recipie at no extra cost. if you're a meat lover its a good experience. It lasted 1.5hours. they offered thsirt to buy at the end however I would have liked to be offered to purchase some billtong or some seasonings.
Enjoyable chatting and learning
