The good news is that the DJays Gourmet team has Christmas sorted.
We’ve come up with some fabulous festive ideas for gifting and entertaining using our famous beef biltong and beef jerky that are guaranteed to put a smile on everyone’s face. Even better – our super simple online ordering and fast delivery means less hassle and more dazzle!
Read on to discover how biltong and jerky can become your best festive helpers this Christmas including how they can be used in:
Edible gifts are always popular and always welcome which is why you can rely on our famous beef biltong or beef jerky to be an all-round winner this Christmas.
Need something for an uncle who has everything? A teen who is impossible to buy for? A Secret Santa gift for a work colleague? A thoughtful token of appreciation? Our range of biltong and jerky gifts has it covered.
Consider a taste-it-all hamper for the foodie in the family or our combo box complete with spices and rubs for the BBQ master. A gift pack containing four different flavours of jerky is the perfect way to say ‘thank you’ while a DJays biltong gift certificate is a sure-fire winner any day of the week. And yes – we even have pet treats as a festive spoil for a furry friend!
And if you’re leaning towards gifting someone an experience this year rather than more ‘stuff’…here’s a fun idea for the perfect package. Consider using the printed voucher to wrap around a pack of jerky or biltong. It’s gifting that has flavour and fun in one glorious combo and it will double the delight for the lucky recipient.

Did you know biltong and jerky can also be used as ingredients to level up your festive cooking?
From subtle enhancements to centre-stage flavour bombs, these meaty treats bring depth, complexity, savouriness, texture and umami richness to a whole range of dishes. Think biltong dust sprinkled over roast lamb, grated biltong stirred through gravy, finely diced jerky whipped into cream cheese for a knockout dip or wilted greens with lightly fried biltong pieces for some flavoursome crunch. The sky’s the limit when it comes to cooking with biltong and jerky!
You could also just keep things simple by offering a generous bowl of sliced biltong or jerky for guests to snack on when you’re relaxing by the barbeque, poolside, picnicking or enjoying the beach.
And don’t forget, these savoury favourites also provide a handy portable energy boost when you need a healthy pick-me-up between festivities or some extra fuel to lift your game in backyard cricket!
