We're Ben and Em
and we’re bringing Biltong to Brooklyn.
We live and love Brooklyn.This city is beautiful, proud and tough. It also has a strong community that is not afraid to give when there is need, and we follow suit!
For every bag of biltong you buy, we give some away to the Brooklyn homeless. While you are enjoying your biltong, know that someone in need is having one of those needs met. We believe that in a neighborhood filled with quirky concepts and mind expansive food ideas, biltong will find a lovely home!
Ben: After two of my American friends practically turned into biltong addicts, I realized the potential of biltong in New York and the USA. Fully, or perhaps fooly, aware of the numerous past and current attempts by South Africans to introduce our delicacy to the world, I knew it has not been done right, …yet!
Emily: Biltong in New York only made sense. Especially in Brooklyn were we live
and see numerous food connoisseurs play their hands. Biltong is a practical way to do what we love and lend our shoulder to this awesome city!
Late, Oupa Dawie: I come from a long line of hunters. If you trace back you will find Harry Wolhuter in there. He was a game ranger in Kruger Park, South Africa. I became a hunter at a very young age and had my own butchery in Pretoria, South Africa for 20 years. I’m glad to share my knowledge and recipes with future generations!
