Rump steak to biltong

Image

New Zealand beef rump steak makes excellent biltong, Sciencelens photographer Gerry le Roux and his wife have found. His wife made the pictured biltong – cured meat – right here in New Zealand from a “nice piece of New Zealand rump” steak. Gerry says it’s a very popular delicacy to anyone (who isn’t a vegetarian) who grew up in South Africa, as he did. “And it is (to me) a great meaty snack to nibble on as an alternative to chips or other salty snacks.”
