Biltong or jerky recipe from corned beef a tasty keto snack

Corned beef biltong jerky a tasty keto snack

The video below shows you how to make biltong or jerky from corned beef and is ideal for a tasty keto snack. Corned beef is considerably cheaper than fresh beef like topside or silverside in this part of the world so this recipe is a cost effect way to make your favourite snack, biltong or jerky. I have needed to experiment with this recipe to account for the saltiness of corned beef. The biltong is ready for eating after 1.5 to 2 days using a cabinet with continuous fan and mild heat from a 40 watt incandescent light bulb. If you would like to know how to make your own cabinet for next to no cost then take a look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLoJS1SZ89w  it also shows the more traditional biltong recipe for fresh beef. Why not try a combination of the 2 recipes on some fresh biltong beef?
